Twelve spruce (Christmas) trees were planted between the War Memorial and Wing Hing Chinese Restaurant by the Tree & Beautification Committee on Saturday, October 20.
These trees are a great addition to our Broadway business corridor and will be used for decorating during various yearly holidays, starting with the Christmas event on December 1 where local businesses, organizations and residents are encouraged to sign up to decorate one of the trees for a chance to win great prizes.
An additional 20 more trees were planted in various locations throughout the city to compliment the existing tree canopy. Also this month, a small number of members planted 24 mums at the Iron Lady at Proprietor\’s Park. Thanks to our community volunteers who took time out of their busy schedules to further beautify our City.
Look for more tree plantings in early November and Spring 2008. To volunteer to plant trees or be a 2008 committee member, contact Eric Fetterolf at 456-7105.
