We're initiating a beautification project! The City of Dallas has generously provided 15 (30-gallon) trees for planting in the median on Easton between Clary and Van Dyke. OLHNA member, Mark Shumann, will be overseeing the project.

We’re looking for at least 10 volunteers to help plant the trees. The city has scheduled to prep the planting sites for us beforehand.

All volunteers will be provided with high-visibility vests and water. Please bring along work gloves, spades, rakes, and any other tools you have that could be helpful.

If you’re able to help, please sign up here. It's a great opportunity to contribute to our community's beauty!

Oh, and if you have any kids who need community service hours they can get credit by helping too! No need to stay the entire time — helping out for even 30 minutes can be a huge help!

The event will feature live music, food, gift specials, as well as activities for the kids, including photos with Santa, face painting, a petting zoo and more. The event is free to attend and open to the public.

Tree Lighting is at 7:15PM!
