Last Friday, April 24th, we got to celebrate one of our favorite traditions with Mrs. Donley's 6th grade class—this year at Cave Park—and they did an amazing job! 👏

With help from our utility crew, these students rolled up their sleeves and planted three new trees: a Kentucky Coffee tree, a Jefferson Elm, and a Weeping Cherry 🌳🌸🌿

After all that hard work, it was time to celebrate with pizza 🍕 and cookies 🍪 (well deserved!) and enjoy a little fun together in the park.

The City is proud to be celebrating our 26th year as a Tree City USA community, and this annual Arbor Day tradition is something we always look forward to. Watching these students help grow our community—literally—is pretty special 💚

A HUGE thank you to Mrs. Donley's 6th grade class for your hard work—you should be proud! 🌱

And a special shout-out to Casey’s for the pizza and cookies 🍕🍪, Gottlob Lawn & Landscape for the beautiful trees, and Bittersweet, LLC for the awesome custom Arbor Day shirts 👕—you helped make the day extra memorable!

We had such a wonderful day celebrating with Mrs. Carpenter’s 1st grade class! 💚 The students wanted to help with a project at one of our beautiful parks, and planting flowers is always a perfect way to brighten up our community. 🌸🌼

These planters had previously been downtown, but we thought they’d be a great addition to Cave Park—and the 1st graders did an amazing job bringing them to life! 🌷

A big thank you to Primarily Plants and Floral, especially KayDee and Cassidy, for helping us pick out the best flowers for the park. 🌿 And another huge thank you to Malinda Jellings with Bread of Life Bakery for the delicious cookies that made the day even sweeter! 🍪

Fun was had by all, and we’re so grateful for a community that comes together to make our town shine! ✨
