Troops and Packs Spring Tree Planting with Zionsville Parks

The Zionsville Cub Scout Packs and BSA Troops have again partnered with Zionsville Parks for several tree planting events.  This year will will be responsible for planting 100 Chokecherry trees and 100 Buttonbushes to help fill in areas from which invasive shrubs were removed last season.  By doing this we will be working to bolster our native shrub and tree populations so that invasive species are less able to return.   We will be digging holes and planting trees in [need numbers and names] parks.  Please come prepared with adult-sized shovels (and gloves if you want them).  Sign up for either of the first two dates or both.  The more the merrier.  Please note that the third date is meant as a back up in the event of rain, cold weather or extra trees.  If all of the trees are planted on the first two dates, the last date will be cancelled.   We will be planting: Thursday, March 23th from 5:30pm-7ish at Heritage Trail Park. Saturday, March 25th from 1-3pm at Creekside Nature Park. (Rain date) Saturday, April 15th from 1-3pm, site TBD.

Please review the available slots below and click on the button to sign up. When you do, please list the scouts first and last name, tribe or troop and number attending.  If you are signing up more than one scout, please do an entry for each.  Cub scouts must have a parent or den leader attend with them.  Thank you!

Zionsville Parks 4/26 and 4/29 tbd

In 2022, Zionsville Parks and Recreation Weed Wrangle volunteers cleared over 3.5 acres of invasive species across Turkeyfoot, Starkey Park, Creekside Nature Park and the Big-4 Rail Trail. This work was expanded further by our Natural Resource Technician, scouts groups and partnership with Ecologic, planting over 150 trees and sowing pollinator prairie across five acres.  

You can help too! Sign up to volunteer with our Parks Department here: www.zionsville-in.gov/609/Volunteering
