Daylong rain and forecasted overnight snow has prompted the City
of Englewood to postpone its planned April 18 Arbor Day
celebration.
The planned tree giveaway will now take place from 8 a.m. until
noon April 25 at Centennial Park, 4630 S. Decatur St.
Provided Mother Nature cooperates by providing good weather,
city employees and volunteers will be on hand in the north parking
lot with five different types of young, maturing trees — about 60
trees in all — available free of charge. They also will have about
100 evergreen seedlings.
The event is sponsored by the Englewood Parks Division and the
Keep Englewood Beautiful Commission.
