EXCLUSIVE REPORT: Ten Years and Going Strong: Moreno Valley Volunteers Join the Mayor and City Council for Another Beautify MoVal Community Day of Service

 

On Saturday, April 25, volunteers of all ages got up bright and early and came together to help spruce up two city parks for Beautify MoVal Community Day of Service.

 

The event kicked off at City Hall, where volunteers were treated to refreshments, raffle prizes, and games. Following the City Hall festivities, residents pitched in to clean up, paint, and landscape at Bethune Park in District 4 and West Bluff Park in District 2.

 

In celebration of Arbor Day, the City Council planted some new trees that will provide shade on those hot MoVal summer days.

 

The event was a great reminder that a little hard work can create something both beautiful and fun.

 

Beautify MoVal events provide memorable experiences for friends and families to build community pride and encourage corporate team building.

 

To volunteer at a future Beautify MoVal event, please visit moval.org/beautify.
