Arbor Day Tree Celebration

COBURG – As a corporation, one our objectives is to give back to our community. Recently, we had the opportunity to do this through the sponsoring of Coburg’s Tree City USA Arbor Day Celebration. This event not only helps to beautify the local community with new folliage, but it also provides an avenue for the youth of Coburg to take an active roll in this process.

April 6, 2001, marked the Arbor Day Celebration for the City of Coburg, as they celebrated their 3rd year as Tree City USA. The fifth grade class of Coburg Elementary planted seven Big Leaf Maple Trees on North Harrison and East McKenzie. Monaco Coach Corporation provided each of the youths with a t-shirt to commemorate their participation in this event.

“The celebration tends to bring the community close and gives the kids a sense of ownership. We look forward to doing this event every year. The city appreciates very much the generosity of Monaco Coach Corporation,” said City Public Works Supervisor Jack Harris.
