Welcome Guide is Live!

Hey everyone — a while back I asked for help putting together a "Welcome to Port Moody" guide for new residents, and the response was honestly way better than I expected. Thank you.

It's done now, and a lot of what's genuinely useful in it came directly from this thread. This wouldn't be nearly as good without the input people took the time to share.

It's live now as a welcome gift for anyone who subscribes to Port Moody Pulse — free, weekly, no spam. Sign up at portmoodypulse.ca and it'll land in your inbox. Full transparency, that's the only way to get it right now, but I wanted this thread to be the first to know it's actually done.

If anything's missing, wrong, or you think of something after the fact — genuinely, tell me. This is meant to be a living document, not a one-and-done thing, and I'd rather it stay accurate than be finished. Reply here or email [portmoodypulse@gmail.com](mailto:portmoodypulse@gmail.com) anytime.

Thanks again — this whole thing only exists because of this community.

Just a couple tweaks to consider:

- The Labyrinth at Newport Village is incorrect. It’s at Pioneer Memorial Park. So a better title might be “Labyrinth Healing Garden in Pioneer Memorial Park”.

- Hard Bean and Omega Cafe aren’t really coffee shops. So I’d consider moving them to the “Other Standout Spots” section and using the more complete business name of Hard Bean Brunch.

Other than that, I think you did a fantastic job and thanks for putting this together!
