Story and photos submitted by the Ada Tree Commission

One of the cool things about being in the 3rd grade at Ada Elementary School is the annual Arbor Day Celebration. 

Each spring, the volunteers on the Ada Tree Commission visit the 3rd graders to talk a little about trees. The commissioners share stories about trees, wildlife, and how to plant the bare root tree each student receives from the Tree Commission. 

Tree Commissioners also talk to the students about what it means to be a Tree City USA, as Ada has been named for 32 years, and what it means for Ohio Northern University to be a Tree Campus USA, as ONU has been named for four years.
