Greenscape 2012 – ! SUCCESS !

Posted by on Feb 25, 2012 in Neighborhood News | Comments Off

  Greenscape 2012 was a huge success for North Shore.  A big thank you to the volunteers who put in their time (meeting at 6 AM no less!) to help load the trees and then spend hours planting them all around our neighborhood.  I’d also like to thank the donors who helped make it possible to add nearly 50 trees. A big thank you to Ray Beeson for taking the lead on Greenscape and literally knocking on doors to make sure we get the maximum trees planted.  Al & Josh graciously donated their vehicles to the cause… hauling trees and mulch.  Jim Green, Trent Tuttle and myself joined in on planting A LOT of trees. Til Next Year….. Michael...

Greenscape – 2012

Posted by on Feb 13, 2012 in Neighborhood News | Comments Off

Neighbors, Do you want to keep North Shore an attractive place to live? Do you want to lower you energy bills?  Increase your property value? Storms in the last few years have taken a toll on our trees! Plus we are eliminating those older trees that threaten our homes. This is understandable – but we need to think about the loss of a wonderful street-scape and shady canopy that defines our neighborhood.  Over the next 10 years, we will lose another 50-60% of our tree canopy.  Let’s keep our neighborhood future headed in the right direction by taking some action now!  Let’s start replanting!  The North Shore Neighborhood Association would like your...
