Fifth Annual Tree Care Summit to be Held on March 17, 2012
The Leesburg Tree Commission will host the 5th annual Home Owners Associations Tree Care Summit on Saturday, March 17, 2012, from 9:00 to 11:00 a.m.. The program will be held at the Ida Lee Park Recreation Center (60 Ida Lee Drive NW, Leesburg), in the lower level conference room.
Topics of discussion will include:
- An overview of the Town’s Urban Forestry Program
- Hiring a tree care professional
- Best practices for selecting, planting and maintaining trees
Demonstrations will include:
- Tree planting
- Effective small tree pruning
The primary focus of the summit is to inform and educate the Town’s Home Owners Associations (HOAs) about effective ways to manage trees on their properties. HOAs are among the largest landowners in Leesburg and, therefore, have the opportunity to contribute significantly to the development of the Town’s Tree Canopy, as they beautify their own environments.
The event is free and open to the general public. Individuals and tree care professional are invited to attend. To RSVP for the Tree Care Summit, please email Bill Ference, Acting Urban Forester, at wference@leesburgva.gov.
