Upland residents are gearing up for a vibrant Earth Day celebration on April 26, 2025, at Greenbelt Park, where the city will host a range of activities from 9 AM to noon. Attendees can look forward to receiving mulch, disposing of electronic waste to support Upland High School football players, and exploring educational booths. The event encourages community involvement, with opportunities for students to volunteer and earn hours for their government classes.

In addition to the Earth Day festivities, the Upland City Council celebrated the success of this year's Easter egg hunt for adults, which raised a record-breaking $26,907.68 thanks to the efforts of the Recreation and Community Services Development Department and local businesses. This achievement highlights the strong community support and engagement in local events.

Looking ahead, families can participate in the annual spring egg scramble for kids on April 19 at Memorial Park, with preregistration required through the Upland Recreation and Community Services Department.

The council also acknowledged the swift response of Public Works Director Damien Arula in addressing a water main line break at Magnolia Park, ensuring minimal disruption for residents. Additionally, the council has decided to dissolve the parks committee, a move that may streamline operations moving forward.

These initiatives reflect Upland's commitment to community engagement and effective governance, promising a lively spring season for residents.
