'Menifee Better Together' returns on April 23

Press release from the City of Menifee:

MENIFEE – For 10 years, the residents of Menifee have come together in service to beautify their community and provide acts of kindness through the annual Menifee Better Together event. This year’s event will begin at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (29725 Bradley Road) on Saturday, April 23, from 7 a.m. to noon.

Following check-in at 7 a.m., the event will kick off with an opening ceremony at 7:30 a.m. and will close with a thank you BBQ at noon hosted by the City of Menifee at the same location. Community volunteers are essential to the success of Menifee Better Together and residents who want to help beautify their community are encouraged to sign-up by pre-registering at www.justserve.org.

Community projects planned for this year’s Menifee Better Together include:

-- Habitat for Humanity’s Senior Home Revitalization
-- Flowerpot Creation Activity
-- Door Hangers for the Responsible Compassion Campaign for the Homeless Task Force
-- Painting Rocks for COVID Memorialization
-- Quail Valley Clean Up and Bulky Item Drop Off at Kabian Park

The Quail Valley Clean Up and Bulky Item Drop Off is open to all Menifee residents and does not require pre-registration for Menifee Better Together. This clean-up event provides the perfect opportunity for residents to get rid of bulky items and other waste in a safe way, including washers/dryers, refrigerators, ovens, microwaves, as well as e-waste and tree trimmings. Drop-off bins will be available at Kabian Park (28001 Kabian Park Road) from 8 a.m. to noon, or until bins are full.

“Working together to beautify our city and help our neighbors in need is what we do in Menifee,” said City Council member Lesa Sobek. “Menifee Better Together is the perfect opportunity to celebrate our community through service to others.”
