Many volunteer groups and individuals made their way to City Hall early Saturday morning to take part in the La Feria Trash Bash in conjunction with the Great American Cleanup to beautify La Feria. Various parks and streets were targeted for cleanup. Afterwards the groups gathered at the La Feria Fire Station for pizza and drinks. We had a great turnout. Thank you everyone! See photos.
