CALGARY -- Sunday morning's snow didn't prevent long lineups of vehicles in three southwest neighbourhoods for the first weekend of the city's annual community cleanup program.
Residents of Glendale, Rosscarrock and Southwood capitalized Sunday morning on the initiative that accepts unwanted items too large to fit in waste or recycling carts.
