Definitely a good idea to get this <br /> items to the public affairs staff with enough lead time to accommodate situations like we had today. Hopefully, <br /> your event will go well tomorrow, Troy. If you're looking for media coverage (given that there's no way to get out <br /> information to the public ahead of time at this point), call KEZI at 485-5778, KMTR at 741-2097, and KVAL at 342- <br /> 4905 on Saturday a.m. and see if you can get someone in the newsroom to tell them about the planting. <br /> Good luck! <br /> EricJ <br /> Original Message <br /> From: BELLMORE Mike <br /> Sent: Friday, April 04, 2003 12:36 PM <br /> To: JONES Eric R <br /> Cc: KREGER Troy D <br /> Subject: More Trees for concrete <br /> Eric, Troy asked me to forward this information to you with the hope that you could fine tune it a bit and get <br /> it out to the media. Sorry for the short notice but it's a busy time of year for tree planters. <br /> Mike <br /> Thanks to the efforts of Eugene Tree Foundation volunteers, a section of street right of way on East 18th <br /> between Oak and Pearl is going to have 10 new trees planted this Saturday. ETF has agreed to <br /> pay $2,500 for the removal of concrete and the preparation of the planting strip. This event is part of an <br /> ongoing partnership between the City of Eugene's NeighborWoods Program, ETF and area businesses <br /> and residents. If you would like to lend a hand, please plan on meeting at the NeighborWoods Canopy, <br /> which will be assembled on East 18th. Planting starts at 9:00 am. <br /> 4/5/03 <br />
