The District of Port Hardy is getting ready to celebrate their 60th birthday, and staff are looking to council for directions.
Considerations for a theme, budget, potential initiatives and activities are expected to be discussed as the district looks to celebrate this milestone.
According to the report, Port Hardy was incorporated in 1966, and they’re looking to present a theme that will capture the heritage of the area and show off the pride of the community.
“This milestone presents an opportunity to reflect on the community’s history, celebrate achievements, and foster community pride,” the report says. “A well-planned celebration may also enhance tourism, strengthen local partnerships, and provide a platform for cultural recognition and community engagement.”
Some events being presented include a festival, parade, music night, or a heritage fair.
Ideas will be heard during the May 27 council meeting.
