With only one month to plan, I would like to give some special thanks to those who were able to work with me on such short notice to pull together this year’s Arbor Day event.Thank you to Anthony’s Florist, Little Sprouts Dayschool, and Vacation Garden School, for providing fun activities for the kids. Thank you to Tom Burke, Manager at Stop & Shop on Pleasant Street; and to Michael Sullivan, Manager at 7-Eleven on Main Street; for providing snacks and beverages. Thank you to Adrian Deniz at Miller’s Ale House for doing a wonderful job of coordinating the lunches donated for our volunteers and table hosts. Thank you to Butler & Sons Tree Service Inc. for their donation of three $100 gift certificates and to Watertown Savings Bank for their donation of reusable bags.
Thank you to Councillor Feltner for coming early Thursday morning to help setup and for doing a wonderful reading of the Arbor Day Proclamation. And thank you to all the wonderful table hosts who provided us with such valuable information about their organizations.
I’m looking forward to next year’s Arbor Day celebration.
