CHAIR’S MESSAGEAs Chair of the Port Coquitlam May Day Organizing Committee, I have the honor of sharing my excitement and pride in our week-long festival. This celebration began in 1923, and for ninety three years we continue to celebrate this event. We begin with our Opening Ceremony on Friday, April 29 and the Festival will continue until Sunday, May 8.

The Opening Ceremony features traditional May Pole dancing and the o� cial introduction of the 2016 Port Coquitlam Royal Party. Over 200 local school children have been practicing May pole dancing and will perform these traditional dances that evening. The weekend festivities continue with the May Day Art Show by Art Focus on Saturday, April 30 and Sunday, May 1 in the Outlet at Leigh Square.

The following weekend activities commence at 3pm on Friday, May 6 with the opening of West Coast Amusement rides. Activities continue that evening with a concert by Choral Connections at 7pm, preceded by a guided Heritage walk at 6pm. The Rotary May Day parade is on Saturday, May 7th at 11am and in addition to the parade there are a variety of activities before and after the parade. The day starts o� with the pancake breakfast in the Outlet in

Leigh Square, followed by the May Day Mile a free family fun run on the parade route. Following that is a pre-parade favourite; the Vancouver Police Motorcycle squad will demonstrate their precision skills on the parade route. After the parade is the Leigh

Square Block Party where the free family fun will continue all day! Talented local performers, the May Day Marketplace, Food Trucks, Beer Garden, Emergency

Preparedness Fair, and Heritage Trolley Tours, all taking place in the downtown core. Our featured performers that day will be starting at 1:30pm with Greg Drummond and the band Regal. Also, the second annual city

sponsored “Biz Alley” which will

feature

local businesses in

the Port Coquitlam area.

The following day, Sunday, May 8th, there will be our Mother’s Day picnic, a wonderful family event at Lions Park. Bring your own

picnic lunch or enjoy a low-cost breakfast or lunch provided by the Scouts and Kinsmen Club of Port Coquitlam. Events are free and include storytelling with the Queen of Storytime, Magic with Matthew the Magician, yoga for moms, martial arts demos, and more! Come and celebrate your mother with us! All moms have a chance to win a spa package that day.

If you are new to our community I encourage you to come out and

experience the many activities. If you have been before, welcome back!

ROTARY MAY DAY PARADESATURDAY, MAY 7TH

The Rotary May Day parade is one of the longest running parades in the lower mainland. It o� cially starts at 11am but you are advised to come much earlier.

Runners need to assemble by 9:45am at Shaughnessy Street and Wilson Avenue and run along the parade route. At 10:35am the Vancouver Police Department Drill Squad put on an amazing show with their formations. All

of these activities are completed in time for o� cial start of the Rotary May Day Parade

GREG DRUMMOND“Straddling the genres of Canadiana and

orchestral folk-rock, Greg Drummond employs the penetrating warmth of hollow-bodied guitars, horns and mandolins to carve out a sound that is uniquely his own.

In his sophomore record, “Drive” (2015), Drummond embarks on a compelling exploration through the

themes of redemption, companion-ship, struggle and perseverance,

with dynamic instrumentation that transports the audience through the

majestic, ambient expanse of B.C.’s wil-derness, to the thumping pulse of a wharf

pub on the coast of Newfoundland.

Since his debut release in 2011, Greg’s music has garnered acclaim and continued support from the

industry, including: CBC Searchlight Top 10, FACTOR Canada, The Peak Performance Project Top 20, and The Shore 104.3FM Best of BC Award.”

DOMINIQUE FRICOTStanding over 6 1/2 feet tall and hailing from

Salmon Arm, BC, Dominique Fricot writes heart melting tunes that have taken him across North America and Europe and won him 102.7 fm’s Peak Performance Project. His singles “I miss the 80s” and “Haunted by Love”

have landed him regular radio air play on local and national (CBC2) radio stations.

MAY DAY BLOCK PARTY SATURDAY, MAY 7TH Party with us in Leigh Square following the Rotary May Day Parade.

DOMINIQUE FRICOTStanding over 6 1/2 feet tall and hailing from

REGAL “Born of a desire to combine the organic and electronic into stunning and in� nitely listen-able songs, REGAL supersedes the paradigm of ‘pop’ music. 

A perfect storm of successful solo artists and studio musicians hone a uni� ed love of crafting infectious moments, intently focused on creating through the accessible, innovative, and inspired: REGAL is a singularity. A dynamic entity. An experience.

REGAL’s mission is to create songs that evoke deep emotion, both from the listener and the players themselves. Their funky yet often atmospheric arrangements, infectious beats, and captivating melodies take the listener from blissful art-rock soundscapes all the way to hard hitting Zeppelin-esque grooves.

Their debut EP, Don’t Stop, was recorded at Vancouver’s Warehouse Studios in February and is now available.”
