Press Release - Leadership Warner Robins Class of 2010 to Hold Tree Dedication Ceremony
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Warner Robins, GA- The Leadership Warner Robins Class of 2010 has designed a community project with multiple beneficiaries. First, the class will enhance the green space in the Warner Robins community by assisting the Little League International Southeastern Division Headquarters, currently under construction, with their landscaping. Second, the class will aid the Joanna McAfee Childhood Cancer Foundation with the renovation of their new office facilities located in the downtown Warner Robins area, also contributing to the revitalization efforts currently underway downtown.
Over the past few weeks, the class provided both businesses and families in the community the opportunity to sponsor trees to landscape the Little League International Southeastern Division Headquarters and stadium. The sponsorship includes a tree and an accompanying 6” x 8” plaque, which will read “donated by”, “in memory of”, or “in honor of”. Tree sponsorships were $100, $300, and $500 based on low, moderate, and high traffic areas around the headquarters building and stadium. Only a few sponsorships remain; interested parties may inquire with Lindsay at (478) 224-7070 or send an email to leadershipwr2010@gmail.com.
The sponsored trees will be planted at the new Little League Southeastern Division Headquarters on May 14th and 15th so they can be in place for the June 12, 2010 dedication ceremony for the new Little League facility. Planting assistance will be provided by Paulk Landscaping and T. Lake Environmental Designs.
On Saturday, May 15, 2010 (May 22 in the case of inclement weather) at 10:00 am, the class will hold a tree dedication ceremony at the Little League Southeastern Division Complex located on Snellgrove Drive in Warner Robins. During the ceremony, the class will acknowledge the numerous tree sponsors as well as the local companies and organizations that have made this project possible. After the ceremony, tree sponsors may visit their trees and are welcome to take photos.
The LWR Class of 2010 invites all members of the community to join us to celebrate this occasion and give thanks to all of the generous families, organizations, and companies in the middle Georgia area that have contributed to the success of this project. The members of the LWR class are grateful and proud to be a part of a community with such a charitable spirit!
