Commission to coordinate Arbor Day with Earth Day on April 22, 2025; seeks volunteers
Summary
The Park Commission agreed to coordinate Arbor Day with Earth Day on April 22, 2025, involve sustainability staff, and form a small volunteer subgroup to plan activities and outreach, with a goal to return recommendations at a future meeting.
Commissioners discussed coordinating Arbor Day with Earth Day on April 22, 2025, and endorsed working with the city’s sustainability team and a new climate action fellow to broaden participation. Staff said the joint approach could increase turnout and help connect tree planting objectives with broader sustainability messaging.
Members asked staff to check the city event calendar for conflicts (Food Fest and other spring events) and sought volunteers for a small planning subgroup; Arden Hall and sustainability staff were suggested as likely participants. Staff will report back on volunteer availability, calendar conflicts and a proposed plan for the spring event.
