David Yakes, general manager at Doubletree Hotels and Executive Meeting Center, helps second-grade students at Grace Abbott Elementary School play a game of "Tree Tag" in celebration of Arbor Day.
Doubletree Hotels with the Arbor Day Foundation kicked off a game of “Tree Tag” on April 24th to celebrate the world’s oldest environmental holiday. The month-long project, kicked off in Nebraska, will raise awareness about the importance of trees across both the United States and Canada. Students and teachers will work with team members from Doubletree Hotels to “tag” the prominent trees on school grounds and in their neighborhood. The over-sized, eco-friendly tags will have unique facts about each tree. Via: Environment News Service. Image courtesy: Cohn & Wolfe. Project website here.
