Environmental & Beautification

This committee assists efforts to plan and execute annual tree planting events.

Helping to memorialize or honor a loved one, friend or special occasion with the planting of a tree is the purpose of this committee. A tree is a living gift that will add beauty to a community park while offering shelter, comfort, and pleasure for years to come.
