The "I Love Hillcrest Valentine's Cleanup" will go from 9 am to noon, and volunteers should meet just south of Park Blvd. and University Ave. at 8:45 am to break up into groups.

Volunteers will sweep sidewalks and pick-up debris throughout the heaviest trafficked parts of the neighborhood.

"You never know who may show up to push a broom with you - and it's great exercise," wrote event organizers in an e-mail.
