History

The park is named after John Chipman Kerr, who was born in 1887 in Fox River, Nova Scotia. In 1915, Kerr enlisted and served in the Canadian Expeditionary Force's 49th Battalion. During the Battle of the Somme at Courcelette, France, Kerr was instrumental in overpowering an enemy stronghold and capturing 62 prisoners. Years later, during World War II, Kerr re-enlisted in the army, transferred to the Royal Canadian Air Force, and was posted to Sea Island, B.C.

He moved to Port Moody in 1947 and lived in the McLean Residence, built around 1908 and named for one its original owners, Elizabeth A. McLean. Kerr lived in Port Moody until his death in 1963. Mount Kerr in Jasper National Park, Alberta is named after Kerr, as is Chip Kerr Park in Port Moody.

History

Pioneer Memorial Park was created by a referendum on the November 1999 municipal election ballot as part of the Millennium Bureau of Canada Grant.

The area was the location of single-family homes, and many of the trees were part of residential landscaping. The landscaping has been enhanced with native plants and trees using Naturescape principles.

Stay off the mudflats!

The mudflats off Rocky Point at the east end of Burrard Inlet are dangerous and unpredictable. They may seem firm but can give way suddenly and can be like quicksand in some areas. 

People and animals can sink, get stuck, and be unable to get out before the tide comes in. If you see someone who is stuck, advise them not to panic. Call 9-1-1 and ask for Fire Rescue.
