Chula Vista, Calif. (PRWEB) September 09, 2014 -- Volunteer registration for the 12th annual Beautify Chula Vista is now open. The popular neighborhood clean-up event offers two Chula Vista locations from which to choose: Rice Canyon at Discovery Park (700 Buena Vista Way, 91910) and Harborside Park (670 Oxford Street, 91911). The event kicks off on Saturday, October 11, from 8:30 a.m. to noon at both locations.

Beautify Chula Vista annually attracts more than 600 volunteers who pick up litter, clean up graffiti and remove invasive plants and weeds. It is a great opportunity for students to earn community service hours, and for family and friends to get involved by lending a helping hand in their community.

The event is Hosted by Mayor Cheryl Cox and the City Council, in collaboration with I Love a Clean San Diego, Republic Services, Buff a Block and the Chula Vista Clean Team.

All volunteers must register prior to the event. Individuals or groups can register at http://www.beautifychulavista.org. For registration questions, please contact I Love a Clean San Diego at volunteers(at)cleansd(dot)org or call (619) 291-0103.
