Arbor Day Proclamation

BOONE, Iowa---Boone Mayor John Slight issued his annual proclamation, recognizing Arbor Day the benefit of trees and tree plantings on Friday.  Slight with Park Commission President Mike Swarts also took some time to assist parks personnel with a memorial tree planting at Herman Park.  The activity ties in the city's ongoing Johnny Appleseed Tree Planting program which takes place on Saturday.  Volunteers will be planting trees around the new baseball field on the Boone Campus of DMACC.  The activities could lead to another Tree City USA Award.
