Highland Park kicks off 2009-10 planting season
Several Highland Park residents eagerly jump-started the planting season on a crisp and sunny November 7th. Volunteers helped to plant 19 trees; the most ever planted in a single day by volunteers! Nice job Highland Park! Black Tupelo and Trident Maple trees were planted on the East and South side, respectively, of Tatum Park. Preston Roberts from Take Root and Jon Nessle of the Chattanooga Tree Commission gave a demonstration of proper tree planting technique, and then volunteers went to work. Take Root extends a hearty “Thank You” to the following Highland Park volunteers:
Bill Jamieson, Jason Kelley, Emily Steinhour, Sarah Miller, Skip Miller, Sherry Roberts, Avery Ashby, Greg O’Dea, Alice O’Dea, Lisa Flint, Fred Flint, Shari Jump, Mike Jump, Ava Moore, Margaret Kovatch, Bob Langgood, Danna Bailey, J.Ed Marston, Jay Craven, Judith Schorr, Carol Killebrew Meyers
