Saturday April 19th is Earth day and at 9am in Brook Peterson Park (1200 Oak Avenue) the city will be getting the parks ready for spring.

There will be a tree planting, breakfast goodies and a photo with the Tree City USA banner.

Then at about 9:30, each Adopt a Park group, and volunteers, will head off to their city parks to perform some spring cleaning.  That way, when it gets really nice out,  the kids will have a nice safe place to play.

Please bring your own work gloves, rakes and friends.  No need for garbage bags, those will be waiting for you.

Ohh, now I think this is where we sing “Plant a tree, trees for America.  Plant a tree today for all the world to see.” 🙂
