Youth Council to staff May 30 Hurricane Expo and continue Adopt‑a‑Road cleanups
Summary
Administrative staff told the Youth Council the city’s Hurricane Expo is scheduled May 30, 2026 (9 a.m.–1 p.m., German‑American Social Club); council members will volunteer and receive hours and will continue the Adopt‑a‑Road program on a bi-monthly schedule.
Administrative contact Greg Allen told the Youth Council that the city’s Hurricane Expo will take place May 30, 2026 at the German‑American Social Club and asked members to volunteer for 9 a.m.–1 p.m. shifts. Volunteers will assist at booths, hand out preparedness supplies and receive youth-volunteer hours for participation.
Allen also confirmed the Adopt‑a‑Road program schedule: the council cleans a one‑mile stretch of Santa Barbara Boulevard North (Pine Island Road to Tropicana Parkway) and meets in the morning on the second Saturday every other month. Members discussed participation requirements (70% attendance threshold for some obligations) and agreed to keep the draft calendar as presented.
Why it matters: The Hurricane Expo and Adopt‑a‑Road activities are council service priorities that provide volunteer hours and public visibility for youth involvement in city emergency preparedness and maintenance of public right‑of‑way.
Members asked staff to send updates and to create a volunteer text group; Chair Brown asked members to keep the May 30 date in mind and to provide counts so staff can coordinate.
