CLEARWATER — Police will host a Neighborhood Cleanup Day along the Pinellas Trail on Saturday, and invite community members to join in sprucing up the area around the trail and in North Greenwood.

The group will meet at Marshall Street and Pinellas Trail at 8 a.m. The event will last until noon and go to Palm Bluff Street.

Clearwater Sgt. Wilton Lee said people have taken advantage of the area around the trail and used it for illegal dumping.

"If it looks bad and it looks dirty, (people think) 'Why not dump there?' It looks like nobody cares," Lee said. "But the neighborhood does care.''

For information, call Lee at (727) 562-4178.
