On a uniquely beautiful August day in San Francisco, a handful of community , government, job training groups and neighborhood volunteers joined to tackle the grit on the urban facade of the complex Fifth District.

Festooned with rakes, brooms, shovels and garbage bags, over 300 people fanned across the district's widely dispersed neighborhoods.

Supervisor Ross Mirkarimi was on hand to celebrate and put some muscle in. Interviews with organizers and volunteers lend a real taste of the event in this video.
