Fiesta Resort & Spa Saipan employees and some members of the Pacific Century Fellows joined hands in cleaning a one-mile stretch along Beach Road as part of their service to the community. This is Fiesta’s first clean up for 2016.

The clean up was held last Saturday, Feb. 27, where 26 bags of trash and other debris weighing roughly 150 lbs. Thirty-eight Fiesta employees, led by general manager Abner Acosta and nine PCF members joined the community service.

The group started from the Fire Station near the American Memorial Park and covered one mile that ended at Angaha Street near the U.S. District Court for the CNMI. That one-mile stretch is Fiesta’s adopted area since 2013.

The cleanup, held on a monthly basis, is part of Fiesta’s management and employees’ commitment of keeping the CNMI clean and beautiful.

“We wish to extend our appreciation to members of the inaugural class of 2014 Pacific Century Fellows and Fiesta volunteers for being a part of the movement to help ‘Beautify CNMI,’” said Acosta, also a PCF alumnus who is a member of the 2014 class.

The PCF teamed up with Project Ayudu in holding a five-kilometer “Back On Our Feet” walk last Oct. 3 to raise funds to repair or rebuild homes that were either damaged or destroyed by Typhoon Soudelor.
