On Friday 31 May and even more on Saturday 1 June, with the start of the penultimate stage, Feltre will be the absolute protagonist of the Italian Cycling Tour. The city will be in the spotlight of half the world, not only with the passage of the race and the Carovana Rosa, but also with the live television broadcast that will see tens, maybe hundreds of millions of viewers, in front of the television screens, without counting the many thousands of fans expected in our territory to enjoy the event as protagonists.
An opportunity not to be missed to raise awareness of the architectural and naturalistic beauties of the Feltrino area and its entire area, a few months after the terrible wave of bad weather that has redesigned, in some ways, the morphology of the city and its territory. The “post-Vaia” represents in this sense a memory still alive in everyone’s mind, but also an extra pride motivation to give Feltre an even brighter appearance.
Based on the response of the citizens, who took the field in those days to lend their work with a sense of community without equal, the administration decided to organize for Saturday 25 May morning of cleaning and small maintenance in the city open to all. The appointment is scheduled for 8.30 am at the municipal warehouses in Via Vignigole 21 (the intervention will close by 12.30). Citizens who intend to join are invited to present themselves with appropriate equipment (if possible high visibility safety vests, suitable shoes or boots, gloves, work clothes), bringing with them any tools available (small gardening tools, trowels, some brooms) useful for removing weeds.
“We have an extraordinary opportunity to demonstrate how Feltre has been able to rise from the dramatic experience at the end of October last year, thanks above all to the sense of community that belongs to it”, highlights mayor Paolo Perez. “The Giro represents a very important showcase: we ask for the help of everyone to make our city even more beautiful, showing the love that binds us to it. I invite all those who can lend a hand, to ‘invest’ Saturday morning to make Feltre even more brilliant “.
