Want to play a role in keeping the Cape Coral clean?<\/p>\n
The city is hosting its annual Cape Coral Clean Up event on April 22 as part of Earth Day, where residents can lend a hand in the beautification. <\/p>\n
The clean-up event runs all day, as residents can cover whichever area of the city they reside in and make a difference in their neighborhood. <\/p>\n
\u201cParticipating in the annual Cape Coral Clean-Up is a hands-on way to celebrate Earth Day and make a visible difference in our community,\u201d said city spokesperson Kaitlyn Mullen. \u201cEvery piece of litter picked up helps protect local wildlife, waterways, and neighborhoods, keeping Cape Coral a vibrant place to live and visit.\u201d<\/p>\n
The clean-up is open to residents from every corner of Cape Coral, no matter where you live. <\/p>\n
\u201cThis is truly a citywide event, as everyone\u2019s efforts add up,\u201d Mullen added. \u201cWhile all areas benefit from some sprucing up, volunteers are especially encouraged to focus on areas near canals and major roadways.\u201d<\/p>\n
