TRANSCRIPT
NEXT MEETING TUESDAY, OCTOBER 9, 6:30 PM - 7:30 PM AT AZALEA REC CENTER
October 2018
The San Diego Asian Youth Organization is holding their 9th Annual
Thanksgiving Rice Drive to benefit families in need. Last year Azalea
Park neighbors contributed 44 twenty-five pound bags of rice. Once
again I am willing to collect money from residents and pick up bags at
Costco up until November 13. A 25# bag, which is preferred by SDAYO,
costs $8.49. You can bring cash or checks to the next two Azalea Park
Neighborhood Association meetings or drop off checks to my locked
mail box at 2609 Tuberose St. Or you can drop off rice or send money
directly to the San Diego Police Department Multi-Cultural Community
Relations Office. See flyer to the right for complete details.

I Love A Clean San Diego reports approximately 7,000
volunteers at the September 15 Coastal Cleanup Day at
106 locations all over the county removed an estimated
130,000 pounds of debris. We had eight sites here in City
Heights, all captained by neighbors who have been
canyon and creek stewards for years. San Diego
Canyonlands supported these captains where needed but
all are experienced in managing large teams of volunteers
and how to properly fill a 40-yard dumpster. 290 volun-
teers helped out in City Heights and removed over 28,000
pounds of debris. So…City Heights had 4 percent of the
total volunteers and collected 22% of the total amount of
trash collected in the county!!! My own experience tells
met this is due to debris left in our canyon and creek areas
by homeless. SDPD confirms that our Mid-City Division
now has more homeless than any other division in the City.
I can't begin to express how grateful I am for all of our
captains and volunteers for their heroic efforts to save our
community from being turned into a trash dump. And for I
Love A Clean San
Diego for organizing
this great event and
arranging to get 40
