Last Tree Planting for 2026 in McKinley Park: On March 28, 2026 from 9 am to noon, Rain or Shine, we will be planting the last trees in our park. Please plan to come out and plant the trees that will soon tower over the park, provide shade, habitat and beauty to the park. Approximately 17 trees will be planted and staked.
This is a big project. We’ve done it before and we’ll do it again, but we need you, plus 49-69 more volunteers.
