Tree Planting Events Planned for Smith Bay Park

Trees play a vital role in our environment and health. The public is invited to join the Virgin Islands Conservation Society (VICS), the Environmental Association St. Thomas-St. John (EAST) and the Magens Bay Authority in planting 64 native trees at Smith Bay Park and learn more about climate change and health. Join other participants on Sunday, June 17 or Saturday, June 23 from 7:30-10 a.m. on Smith Bay Park Road.
A VICS grant was provided by UVI’s Caribbean Exploratory Research Center Medical University of South Carolina and the National Institutes of Health’s National Center on Minority Health and Health Disparities. Please RSVP at 777-7190 or e-mail east.activities@gmail.com to confirm attendance, and bring a shovel and gloves if available.
