The Wesley Bishop Park in Moorestown will be the place to be on Arbor Day, April 24. Moorestown will not only be celebrating its 25th year of being a Tree City USA community, but it is also where the 2015 State Arbor Day Celebration will be held. Moorestown hopes to plant around 50 to 100 trees that day.
“I’m extremely proud that we can bring the state celebration here. Moorestown has been a Tree City for 25 years. The whole town believes in trees, and it is an honor to have the celebration,” John Gibson, chairman of the Moorestown Tree Planting and Preservation Committee, said.
To help raise funds for those trees, the committee is hosting a fundraiser on Tuesday, March 24 with the Iron Hill Brewery, located at 124 East Kings Highway in Maple Shade. For everyone who has dinner at Iron Hill on that day and presents a Give 20 Percent coupon, Iron Hill will donate 20 percent of their food bill to the committee, which will be used for the purchase of trees for the event.
The coupon is provided here. Please be sure to print this out and bring to Iron Hill Brewery for Tuesday, March 24 to help with the funding of the trees for Arbor Day.
