CITY OF CLOVIS TO HOST TREE PLANTING CEREMONY TO COMMEMORATE NATIONAL ARBOR DAY

CLOVIS, NM (April 28, 2023) – The City of Clovis would like to invite the public to join them at a tree planting ceremony held at Hillcrest Park scheduled for 2:00 p.m., Monday, May 1, 2023, to celebrate National Arbor Day.

The City of Clovis is part of Tree City USA, a program that has been in existence in cities and towns across America since 1976. It provides the framework necessary for communities to manage and expand their public trees. Arbor Day, much like Earth Day, celebrates nature. Its purpose is to encourage people to plant trees in their communities.

“Our park areas greatly benefit from all the beautiful trees we enjoy and which enhance the environment,” advised Parks and Recreation Director, Russell Hooper. “We encourage the public to join us in celebrating Arbor Day.”

For more information regarding the tree planting ceremony, please contact the City Manager’s Office at (575) 763-9670.
