On April 27, a group of Rotarians delivered trees to every Reading Public Schools 5th Grade Student. This year's tree, specially chosen by our resident botanist, KC Latham, was a Lilac tree. Rotarians visit each of the five elementary schools, tell them about Arbor Day, the importance of trees to our ecology and a little about Rotary.

The students were excited to receive and plant their trees. Below, Kyle, a Joshua Eaton School 5th Grader, prepares to dig the hole for his tree.
