How should the RNeighborWoods group follow-up a successful fall planting of 238 trees by 150 volunteers?
By doing a spring planting of course!

Meet by the ball fields of Rochester Central Lutheran School (RCLS). Please park on 9th Avenue, at Elton Hills Elementary, or at Hoover Elementary, not at RCLS.
Look for a table and smiling people with safety orange vests on. We'll introduce our Citizen Foresters, go over the logistics of the planting, divide into groups, and then plant 100 trees all along Elton Hills Drive! The majority of these trees were purchased by Rochester Public Utilities and include tree varieties of Serviceberry, Tree Lilac, Adams Crabapple, and Ginkgo trees (in spaces that are not under the power wires).
They speak for the trees. At the fall 2006 planting, Operation Hometown Gratitude (high school kids who send care packages to troops) helped plant trees at both the Elton Hills Drive and 20th Street SE location.
