Santa Paula News
America in Bloom, Santa Paula will be targeting Harvard Boulevard on October 2nd.
Harvard is the main thoroughfare through our city and we want it to look welcoming with a sea of colorful flowers. Our first four projects on Harvard will be done during the Santa Paula Beautiful day that the city sponsors each year. Enterprise Strip Mall and O’Reilly’s Auto Parts will be the first two businesses to receive a landscaping face lift. Teague Park will also benefit with planting that will spruce up the area. Isbell School’s Harvard frontage will be donned with bright and attractive flowers to make the students even more proud of their wonderful school.
Our mission is to partner with dedicated and resourceful residents, businesses, organizations, churches, schools and city staff in the task of beautifying the city, displaying civic pride and increasing environmental awareness. We have a two year target fulfill this mission and it can only be done if each of its citizens pitches in and does their part.
WILL YOU DO YOUR PART?
We need volunteers to help prepare for planting on Friday, October 1st at 9:00 a.m. and we need help with planting on Saturday, the 2nd at 8:00 a.m.. This is your city. You can make a difference.
Call Mike or Shelly Coleman at 525-5781 and sign up.
The city will be roasting hot dogs at the gazebo at noon as we all celebrate a city that cares and works together to make our city the best and most beautiful.
America in Bloom will also be giving out volunteer cards. If you volunteer two times, you will receive a Blooming Pride t-shirt that you should wear with honor. You stepped up, you sacrificed your time and energy, you showed your love of the city and you made it happen.
TOGETHER WE CAN DO ANYTHING!
