The West End Cleanup has been disbanded.  Unfortunately, this had to be done for a couple of reasons:

• Not enough volunteers were coming out for events; and,
• The City of Vancouver has shown a decided disinterest in doing anything productive about the litter situation in the West End (and in the entire city, for that matter).  We have fought for years to get more garbage cans and ashtrays placed in the neighbourhood, to no avail.

That is truly unfortunate as this city – and this neighbourhood – has the potential to be truly spectacular!

To those of you who intend to continue cleaning up the West End, best wishes to you!
