It was mighty cold but we had a great turnout and the kids have some trees on their new playground. Mayor DuPree told the kids that these were their trees and we wanted them to take care of them. Thanks to Principle Large and the Grace Christian School for hosting the 2011 Arbor Day.http://thegrove.americangrove.org/profile/CharlesAndyParker

Yeah the weather wasn't perfect but it didn't stop us. Randall Arendt, Buck Abbey and all the other speakers were top notch. Thanks to all of them for their time and efforts.

Comment by Andy Parker on October 26, 2010 at 11:24am: Hi Donna, I have been trying to find the time to really sit down and look over the Grove. I like the site and its content. I think it will be a good networking tool and we can see what our friends are doing across the state and country.

Comment by Donna Vaughn Yowell on September 8, 2010 at 12:58pm: JOIN the MISSISSIPPI Grove! Post your tree planting photos and inspire others. I sent out an invitation to our entire membership of 527 people/cities/companies yesterday.
