Arbor Day 2013 in Carson City will be on April 26, beginning at 5:30 p.m. at Fulstone Park. This year's event will recognize Gardeners Reclaiming Our Waysides (or GROW for short) with its landscaping efforts along the Carson City freeway.
In November 2012 GROW was recognized as Carson City's "Organization of the Year" at the city's Parks and Recreation annual awards ceremony held in partnership with the Foundation for the Betterment of Carson City and the Carson City Historical Society.
Regarding GROW's work the partnership noted: "No other organization has made such a one-time big year splash to improve the appearance of Carson City while at the same time providing thought provoking enhancements to our Carson City Freeway project."
Fulstone Park is on the corner of Eastridge Lane and Northridge Drive by the Boys and Girls Club of Western Nevada. It is accessible from the city's bike paths.
The event is hosted by the Carson City Shade Tree Council.
