O&R, Beckerle Lumber, Spring Valley Rotary, Branch Out, Get to the Roots of Arbor Day
By the end of this week, O&R’s Certified Arborist Mark Beamish, in cooperation with Beckerle Lumber and the Spring Valley Rotary, will have presented Arbor Day education programs to over 700 third graders in the East Ramapo Schools.
Those presentations at Margetts, Grandview, Fleetwood, and this one at Summit Park Elementary School today and Hempstead on Wednesday, underscore the importance of healthy community tree stock.
Beamish was joined in his presentation, during which students received posters, a book mark and seedlings, by Beckerle Lumber President Larry Beckerle and O&R’s Regional & Community Affairs Director Neil Winter.
