OVER 100 volunteers have signed
up to clean up areas from the Micronesia Mall intersection to the Governors
Complex in Adelup beginning at 7 a.m. this Saturday. Motorists are advised
to proceed along these areas with caution.
The sponsoring group, NaLa Bonita Guam, is operating under the umbrella
of the Beautification Task Force. The organization is also working in
conjunction with the Guam Hotel and Restaurant Associations Keep
Guam Clean project in Tumon this weekend for a trash clean up.
The areas targeted for cleaning include the Micronesia Mall, East West
Rental, the Department of Public Works, Airport Mobil, Dennys Restaurant,
Tamuning Taco Bell, Alupang Beach Club, Island Tinting, Padre Palomo Park,
the Staywell offices, and the Ace Hardware Anigua.
Interested persons, groups and organizations are invited to volunteer
their time to clean up areas alongside Guams most frequented roadway,
Marine Corps Drive. Those interested in volunteering can simply show up
at 7 a.m. tomorrow at the designated cleanup sites.
The governor and lt. governor have tasked the various agency heads
to take the lead on this project. There will be volunteers from various
government agencies as well as the private sector, said Department
of Parks and Recreation director Joe Duenas.
The NaLa Bonita cleanup efforts began in 2003 after Typhoon Pongsona
ripped through island, Duenas said in a statement.
