Co-Champion Tree Marker CeremonyOctober 15, 2014
Photos taken this morning at the Co-Champion Tree Marker ceremony. This Southern Magnolia is as big as the current Champion so it has been designated as a Co-Champion. We thank Reuben Gardner for letting us nominate the tree on his property. We're proud of Facilities Division Superintendent Dale Gandy and Urban Management Division Superintendent Deven Peek for finding the tree and coordinating the measuring by the Alabama Forestry Commission. Lastly, thanks to AFC for this great program. Our Southern Magnolia, plus the other 2 Champion trees in Autauga County are 3 of only 147 Champions distributed throughout 48 of 67 Alabama counties. |
