In a town that is known for all the natural forestation, it is a wonder that The Woodlands still has an Arbor Day celebration. This past Saturday, January 19th The Woodlands held its 31st Annual Arbor Day Celebration in the Sterling Ridge Shopping Center.
To say it was a success would be an understatement. In fact, about 33,000 seedlings in nine different varieties were distributed during the event. In addition, six native trees in 15 gallon containers - including 2 Magnolias, 2 Blueberry, 1 Live Oak & 1 Pine tree were given to random prize winners.
The Houston Museum of Natural Science - The Woodlands Xploration Station brought a birthday present for Puffy the Pine Cone (The Woodlands Mascot). Puffy was quite pleased with the natural amethyst stone gift. Also on hand were Barkley (Woodforest Bank's mascot); Carey Bear (Memorial Hermann The Woodlands Hospital's mascot) and SpongeBob SquarePants, among several others.
Congratulations on a fantastic event celebrating our most famous resource - TREES!
