May 15th was a big day for MAJESTA and Tree Canada as the 2010 tree planting season officially kicked off in Cantley, Quebec.
Juno award winning musician David Usher, the spokesperson for Trees by the Shore, was on hand at the event to lend his support and even plant a few trees himself.
"It's very tangible," he said. "You get your hands dirty. You can see the results right away. We are planting 1,600 trees today." Usher also said the program is admirable because it encourages people to get involved and help better their community. [Ottawa Citizen, May 16, 2010]
Thanks to Les Amis du Parc Mary-Anne-Phillips and all the other volunteers who came out and made this event a success.
