STAUNTON, Va. (WVIR) - Staunton’s Arbor Day roots date back to 1889. It was the city’s first major tree planting in Gypsy Hill Park. It’s a legacy that continues still today with a message they are trying to pass on to future generations.
Staunton City Schools and Shenandoah Green together hosted a tree-planting ceremony at Dixon Educational Center Friday.
The Heifitz International Music Institute gave a special performance, Reverend Edward Scott shared a word, and Staunton Schools Superintendent Garett Smith read a story, but the stars of the day’s festivities were Staunton’s youngest learners - its preschoolers.
