Arbor Day Celebration 2024
Newport, OR – Monday, March 25, 2024- The City of Newport, in collaboration with the Newport Public Library and the Parks and Recreation Department, is proud to announce its annual Arbor Day Celebration,
scheduled to take place on Friday, April 19th from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM. The event will be held in the McEntee Meeting Room, outside on the library patio, and in the Library Seed and Read Garden located at 35
NW Nye Street, Newport, OR 97365.
Arbor Day is an occasion celebrated nationwide to promote tree planting and environmental stewardship. As a Tree City USA, the City of Newport is committed to preserving and enhancing its urban forestry.
The Arbor Day Celebration serves as a testament to the city's dedication to green initiatives and community engagement.
This year's celebration promises an array of activities and educational opportunities for attendees of all ages. Representatives from various organizations, including the US Forest Service, Confederated
Tribes of Siletz Indians, MidCoast Watershed, Lincoln County Master Gardeners, and PUD, will be present to share valuable resources and information about environmental conservation efforts in Lincoln County.
One of the highlights of the event is a tree giveaway featuring native trees, available while supplies last. Participants will also have the opportunity to engage in hands-on activities at the kids' table and
assist in planting seeds in the Library's Seed and Read Garden, fostering a deeper connection to nature and sustainability.
Join us for an educational session on ivy removal at Literacy Park, where participants will be guided through identifying areas affected by ivy on trees. Learn about the most effective approaches to ivy removal
as we celebrate Arbor Day together.
"We are thrilled to host the Arbor Day Celebration in partnership with the Newport Public Library and the Parks and Recreation Department," said Michael Cavanaugh, Parks and Recreation Director of the City of Newport.
"This event not only celebrates the significance of trees in our community but also underscores the importance of environmental stewardship and community collaboration."
The Arbor Day Celebration is a wonderful opportunity for residents to learn more about vital organizations in Lincoln County, participate in meaningful activities, and contribute to the preservation of our natural resources.
Join us for a day of fun, education, and environmental advocacy!
