Extractions: BACKDROP "Everybody loves spring, and the Spring Daze Festival is the community’s closest thing to a celebration of spring," said Town Horticulturist Shaub Dunkley. "But what would our spring be like without trees? A spring festival is a perfect time for the community to also celebrate the importance of trees to our quality of life." Arbor Day started in Nebraska as a day set aside to celebrate and plant trees. While spring is a good time to plant trees in Nebraska since it has such harsh winters, fall and winter are actually much better times to plant trees in North Carolina. Springtime, however, remains a wonderful and traditional time to enjoy and celebrate trees. During the 11:30 AM Arbor Day ceremony, the State of North Carolina will present the Town with its sixteenth consecutive Tree City USA award. This award is given to communities who meet municipal tree program standards set by the National Arbor Day Foundation. Standards require the municipality to have a landscape or municipal ordinance and to also have comprehensive community tree program that has a minimum funding level of $2 per capita. In 1998, Cary spent an estimated $5.44 per capita. The ceremony will include a report on the Trees For Cary program, which pools public donations for tree planting. The report will include announcement of the individuals and organizations whose names have been added to a program plaque located in the Town Hall. Staff will also give an overview of town tree-related highlights since last Arbor Day.

Two environmental celebrations take place in the month of April-Earth Day is April 22 and Arbor Day is April 25. These aren't just your run-of-the-mill celebrations; Earth Day and Arbor Day are calls to action and hallmarks of springtime. Earth Day and Arbor Day have made real, positive impacts on our country. The first Earth Day, held in 1970, helped to influence the creation of the United States Environmental Protection Agency and the passage of the Clean Air, Clean Water and Endangered Species acts. On the first Arbor Day, in 1872, more than one million trees were planted-and that was only in Nebraska, where Arbor Day was founded. Since then, the idea of Arbor Day has spread to all of the United States and many other nations. The number of trees that have been planted as a result of Arbor Day is unknown, but certainly quite substantial. Each of DEC's Environmental Education Centers will host festivities in honor of these Earth holidays.
