This cache gets it name after former Port Moody mayor and former BC NDP MLA, Joe Trasolini. As a mayor, he won many environmental awards for his city and for the most part, has been liked by many in Port Moody. Joe Trasolini immigrated to British Columbia in 1963 from his birthplace in Italy. He graduated from the BCIT Chemical and Metallurgical Engineering Technology Program, and worked in the public and private sector. Since 1985, Trasolini has owned and managed a contracting firm based in BC. In 1996 Trasolini was elected to Port Moody City Council, and in 1999 was elected Mayor. During his four terms in the mayor’s office, Port Moody has received a number of awards for sustainability initiatives and good management practices. Trasolini was the first mayor in British Columbia to institute a weekly open door session, an opportunity for constituents to meet with the mayor and raise issues important to them. Trasolini served as a Director of Metro Vancouver, and on the Translink Mayor’s Council where he has successfully secured funding for the Evergreen Line Skytrain expansion. Near the cache location is Port Moody City Hall and Trasolini Field, a popular soccer field. I volunteered to help Joe become an MLA during the bi-election, it was a great experience knocking on doors and speaking to people, asking what issues affect them the most. It was quite the celebration on April 19th 2012, when Joe won the bi-election. Great job to Joe, and to the exellent volunteers as well! And to all geocachers, good luck!
