COUNTY EXECUTIVE OBSERVES ARBOR DAY WITH TREE PLANTING

Wicomico County Executive Richard M. Pollitt, Jr., joined by school and county officials, planted a tree in observance of Arbor Day at the newly-renovated Prince Street Elementary School in Salisbury. Pollitt said he chose the location because, “There is a close relationship between renewing our natural environment at the same time we renew our schools. Both will have a significant impact on the world we leave to the next generation.”

“Arbor Day reminds us of how fragile our natural environment has become and that it is our obligation to future generations to assure the survival of the trees,” said Mr. Pollitt in anticipation of the event.
