Discarded bottles and cans can make a difference
Entertaining around holiday time can mean your blue bins of recyclables can fill up more quickly than usual.
A reminder that Lions Bay resident (and former Mayor) Douglas Miller collects recyclable cans and bottles on behalf of "John", a long-time neighbour who makes his home outdoors, just outside the municipal boundary.
John has spent the last 25 years collecting garbage along the Sea to Sky, and Miller says he deeply appreciates the support of Lions Bay residents, particularly when the weather gets colder.
Recyclable cans and bottles can be bagged up and dropped at 229 Bayview Road, where Miller will ensure they are passed on to John.
One small act of kindness can make a big difference to this deserving local resident.
