The City of Chula Vista, in collaboration with the South Bay Sustainable Communities Network, is issuing a community-wide call for volunteers to join the 22nd Annual Beautify Chula Vista Day on Saturday, October 18, 2025, from 8 a.m. to noon. This much-anticipated neighborhood cleanup event aims to engage residents in hands-on beautification efforts across the city. In 2024, over 400 dedicated volunteers removed thousands of pounds of litter and graffiti, making a visible and lasting impact on Chula Vista’s neighborhoods, creeks, and canyons. Now in its 22nd year, Beautify Chula Vista Day continues this powerful tradition of civic engagement and environmental stewardship. Volunteers can choose to begin their day at either Loma Verde Community Center, located at 1420 Loma Lane, or Chula Vista City Hall, located at 276 Fourth Avenue. Upon arrival, participants will check in with event leads, complete a safety orientation, and receive cleanup supplies and instructions for the day’s efforts. All volunteers must register in advance at www.BeautifyChulaVista.org. Participants are asked to provide their own transportation and to wear appropriate clothing and sturdy shoes. They should also bring work gloves, a refillable water bottle, and any snacks or lunch they may need. This event also qualifies for student community service hours. With more than 400 volunteers needed, the event will focus on removing graffiti, collecting litter, and restoring the visual appeal of streets, parks, and public spaces. This is a prime opportunity for residents, families, students, and local organizations to come together, give back, and take pride in their community. For more information or assistance with registration, contact the City’s Environmental Services Division at environmentalservices@chulavistaca.gov or call (619) 691-5122. Together, we can keep Chula Vista clean, green, and beautiful for all. Visit: https://www.chulavistaca.gov/departments/clean/beautify-chula-vista City of Chula Vista on Instagram and Facebook
