A sure sign of spring in High River, besides the Hitchin' Post opening, is the town's street sweeper doing its spring cleaning.
Street sweeping starts in earnest next Monday, April 7, in the Hamptons and Sunshine Lake.
The town is asking you to watch for parking ban signs, which will be out 24 hours in advance.
They're also asking you to sweep any gravel on your driveway down to the curb so it's easy for the street sweeper.
You're also asked not to put any gravel in your garbage or recycling bins.
Once the gravel is swept up, it gets cleaned by a Trommel machine and is added to road salt to create the pickle mix used to sand winter roads.
