Urban Forestry Program Tonight

Urban Forestry Program by Capitol Neighborhoods, Inc.

Thursday, July 27, at 7 pm
302 East Gorham Street, James Madison Park at N. Butler

The impact of trees in the city will be the focus when Capitol Neighborhoods
Inc. (CNI) presents a public program with experts from Madison, Milwaukee
and the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR).

Urban forestry has gained momentum in recent years as scientists better
understand the economic benefit of trees for cooling, air cleansing and
rainfall interception.

The CNI program will include Marla Eddy, city forester for Madison; Jim
Kringer, Milwaukee forestry inspector; and Jeff Roe, DNR urban forestry
coordinator. There will be time for questions from the audience following
the presentation.

The program is free to the public and sponsored by Daffodil Parker. It will
be taped and scheduled on Madison City Channel 12.
