The City of Pineville is celebrating a weekend of community involvement following a series of events focused on beautification and family activities.

As part of Love the Boot Week, volunteers gathered Friday at Kees Park, where members of the Alexandria Garden Club and the Youth Challenge Program worked to improve and refresh the space for residents.

Cleanup efforts continued Saturday at the Kingsville shopping centers, where community members participated in a Love the Boot cleanup project aimed at maintaining the city’s appearance.

The weekend concluded with Pineville’s inaugural Spring Fling at the Riverfront. The event, held in partnership with Pineville native and NFL player Cody Ford and his foundation, Ford’s Pancake House, provided a day of activities for local families and children.

City officials expressed appreciation to the volunteers, organizations and residents who contributed to the weekend’s success.
