​The Snow Angel program attempts to unite people who need help clearing their adjacent City sidewalks of snow, with eager volunteers from our community who want to help. When it snows, City crews clear our roadways and property owners clear their sidewalks, driveways/ walkways (includes city adjacent sidewalks) - all in an effort to keep Coquitlam moving. But for some members of our community, particularly seniors, moving snow is a difficult task. Snow Angels will respond to requests made to the City by those who are unable to shovel their own adjacent City sidewalk due to physical disabilities or restrictions. 

Must be 16+, Coquitlam resident in adequate physical shape and capable of clearing snow. 

Commitment: 1-2 homes per individual each session; the volunteer term will run all of 2025 - 2026 winter season, with requests being weather dependent. ​

Would you be surprised to learn that not all the hatchery work involves fish directly?  In addition to tending to the fish at various stages of their growth, it takes a dedicated group of volunteers to use their skills in accounting, administrative work, gardening, plumbing, electrical work, as well as general building maintenance to make the hatchery a success.

If you are interested in exploring this volunteer work, whether tending to coho or chum directly or assisting with other duties, reach out via email. Alternatively, you could drop in for a tour on Saturdays when we are open from 0930-1230. Come and see how you can fit in. Corner of Coast Meridian Road and Patricia, Port Coquitlam.
