2007 Remembrance Tree Planting Roster

The Fall 2007 planting donation cut-off date was 15 Sep 07.

Two categories of donations were available:

Category 1:
$240 for a tree with a 1.5-inch caliper.
Category 2:
$350 for a tree with a 2.5-inch caliper.

Please note that certain species and sizes, if specified by the donor,
will increase the donation amount based upon the increased purchase price from the commercial nursery.

In the case of young trees, caliper is the diameter of the tree measured six inches above ground level. Depending on the species, the trees vary in height from 6'-10'.

  • Although the trees will be planted only in the spring or fall, they may be ordered at any time.

  • Payments must be received prior to February 15 for spring planting and prior to September 15 for fall planting. (Some species, such as oaks, may not tolerate fall planting and therefore may only be planted in the spring.)

  • The trees will be planted by the Arborist in the Borough and by Centre Region Parks & Recreation staff in the townships.

The trees listed below reflect donations made to date for 2007 plantings (as of 19 Sep 07).

Funds for Tree #305 were donated in Fall 2007 but the tree will be planted in Spring 2008 since an oak isa Fall Planting Hazard. The details of the Tree #305 Donation are therefore shown on the 2008 Roster.
