The Town of Winthrop has received designation as a Tree City USA for 2006 from the National Arbor Day Foundation. The award will be presented to the Winthrop Tree Board on Wednesday April 25th at 4pm at the Town's Arbor Day Celebration at Mack Lloyd Park.
Winthrop's Tree Board, led by Dan Kirkmire of Wild Hearts Nursery, spent over 220 hours of volunteer time to complete the requirements of becoming a Tree City USA and to help the Town of Winthrop prepare its Community Forestry Plan.
