One New Westminster household is doing its part to share community cheer – with a little help from a large stuffed moose.

Eleven-year-old Sarah Rasmussen wrote to alert the Record about the display that’s ongoing at 302 Blackman St., in the Glenbrooke North neighbourhood.

“Every day, when my family goes for a walk, we pass by a house with a big stuffed moose sitting in front of it,” Sarah wrote. “The moose is doing something different every time we see it. It has been Superman, a mermaid, an athlete, a groom, Little Red Riding Hood, etc. You have no idea how much work and imagination they have put into it.”

Sarah writes that the home has been putting out their moose display since the COVID-19 pandemic started.

“It makes us smile every time we see it,” she said. “I really think it brings the community together, which is especially important right now.” 

Kudos to the homeowners – and thanks to Sarah for letting us know.
