Yellow
Springs High School students Will Turner and Sady Sparks,
left, cut down the last tree of the School Forest camp-out
weekend for Sady’s mom, Sarah Strong, on Sunday, Dec.
6. This year’s foresters sold nearly 140 5–9-foot
scotch pines and grossed over $4,000, more than the group
has ever made on the weekend. The School Forest program
started raising evergreen saplings in the spring of 1947
and began selling Christmas trees to the community in the
winter of 1948. |
