Downtown's ambassadors hit the streets to provide help, hospitality and safety

You may have noticed "ambassadors" roaming around Downtown.  The energetic team is on call Wednesday through Sundays from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. to help guide visitors, assist local businesses when issues arise and, overall, be a friendly face to all!

The ambassadors are part of Vista's Clean and Safe Program that started in May.  The program's goal is to keep the Downtown well maintained which attracts more visitors and deters crime.

Businesses already report the team has made a positive impact in a short amount of time by finding assistance for area homeless, removal of graffiti and picking up litter along the streets.

Meet some of the ambassadors in the video below.  And check out a recent article by the San Diego Union-Tribune.
