Hillcrest Clean T.E.A.M. (Together Everyone Achieves More)

 

Please don’t litter in Hillcrest!

Thanks for pitching in to enhance the neighborhood

LOTs of trash and hundreds of cigarette butts were removed from Hillcrest on Saturday morning April 12, 2008. Big thanks to all the volunteers who helped clean-up the neighborhood on such a hot day. Thanks, too, to Toni Atkins office for securing the use of the dumpster, City Deli for donating the cookies and HillQuest for the use of their GEM cars. The next neighborhood clean-up will be from 7am-noon on Monday, July 21st. That’s right — Monday following the LGBT Pride parade and festival. Hope you can join us. Meet up just south of Park Boulevard & University at 6:45am as volunteers will again help to clean up the neighborhood. SD Pride will be donating $10 to the Hillcrest Town Council for each volunteer hour. Please join us for this win-win event for the community. It will be the Town Council’s first fundraiser. For more information call (619) 260-1929.

Who is the Hillcrest Clean T.E.A.M.? From November 2005 through January of 2007 dozens of dilligent sweepers met the first and third Sundays of each month and cleaned the sidewalks and gutters of Hillcrest. After a well-deserved break, they’re sweeping again with the help of the Hillcrest Centennial and the Hillcrest Town Council. Please join us!

“I would just like to say that I sincerely appreciate all the efforts of the Hillcrest Clean Team. Hillcrest has come along way since the days of the furniture building (which is now replaced by Whole Foods) and the rear parking lot that had been used as a public dump. Your diligent work has helped maintain the beauty of the neighborhood that Hillcrest is today! Bravo! Kudos to all!

I think the creation of the Hillcrest Town Council is a great idea! (I’ve called Hillcrest home since 1974.) Hillcrest is more than just a business district. The people that live in the Hillcrest area give the neighborhood it’s flavor and character! I’m interested and plan to attend an upcoming town hall meeting to hear the concerns and interests of other people in Hillcrest.

Once again, thanks to the Hillcrest Clean Team for a job well done!”

The very best to you, Holly Sandy
