We are excited to invite you to join us Wednesday, October 21st, for Kentucky State University's Fall Arbor Day Celebration!
As KSU works toward becoming a recognized Tree Campus, we invite our campus community to come together for a fun day of celebrating our trees, exploring our natural spaces, and supporting a greener campus!
Hosted collaboratively by KSU's Forestry and Natural Resources Program and Environmental Education and Research Center (EERC), this event will offer several opportunities to get outside, connect with colleagues and community members, and help us celebrate this exciting step toward a Tree Campus recognition.
Start your morning exploring Thorobred Trail! Join us for guided bird and tree walk to learn more about the native trees, birds, and natural habitats found right here on KSU's campus.
Following the walk, we'll work together on a trail cleanup to help keep the Thorobred Trail clean and welcoming for everyone.
After, please join us for the highlight of the day as we plant a new tree on campus in celebration of Fall Arbor Day and KSU's journey to become a Tree Campus. We would love to have as many faculty, staff, students, and community members there as possible.
Stick around and enjoy a hot cocoa and snack station, fun activities and games for kids, and opportunities to connect with others from across campus and our community.
Interested in highlighting your program? We also welcome KSU departments and programs to set up an informational table during the tree planting. If you would like to participate, please email Kasia Bradley at [email protected].
Please feel free to share this invitation with your students, colleagues, friends, and community partners. This celebration is open to everyone, and we would love to bring together as much of our KSU and surrounding community as possible.
We look forward to sharing our appreciation for the natural spaces on campus and celebrating this exciting step forward for Kentucky State University.
Thank you! We hope to see you on October 21st!
