ARBOR DAY CELEBRATION
In memory of Gaylord Easton, a blue spruce was planted by the Firemen in Firemen's Park on
April 15"i, 2009. There was a very nice turnout in spite of rather inclement weather all the day.
The Firemen each deposited a shovelful of earth at the base of the tree, and Mr. Fred Bicha, from
the DNRC, presented the Mayor with banners and the material showing that Laurel was an official
Tree City.
