(To the tune of Teddy Bear’s Picnic)
If you go down to Sechelt today, you’re sure of a big surprise
If you’re near non-hosted STRs today, you’d better go in disguise
For every bear that ever there was
Will gather there for certain because
Today’s the day these savvy bears have their picnic
Every bear who’s been good is sure of a treat today
There’s lots of marvelous things to eat and a wonderful mess to make
On the streets where nobody sees
They’ll hide and feast as long as they please
That’s the way the bears have their picnic.
With the new collection schedule for garbage and recycling, the day for pick-ups has been changed and garbage will only be picked up every other week. This is manageable by residents, but not so for the multiple non-hosted STRs in Sechelt that have constant turnover of guests leaving excessive garbage. Conflict and death for our wild animals will increase significantly with such attractants sitting at the curb for days.
