The Milwaukee District Garden Clubs Executive Committee and garden club members attended the dedication of an ADA bench and the planting of three plums trees July 12 on the Hank Aaron Trail.
As MDGC Director, Diane Olsen's project the last four years has been to help develop the Hank Aaron Trail. Under Diane's leadership, MDGC raised funds for the ADA bench and the three native American Plum trees that were planted near the bench. Constructed of recycled plastic lumber, the bench has a plaque commemorating the MDGC donation. The Department of Natural Resources will maintain the area around the bench and water the plum trees. |
