Derick Doubleday was a long-time Township Administrator and his wife Gloria has dedicated this land to the Township of Langley for a public park that includes trails and plenty of space for birds and nature.
Remembering Yesterday. Sustaining for the Future.
The 7th Annual Arbour Day Celebration is a free family and community event for all ages highlighting the importance of trees and the urban forest in our community.
Join us for the day and learn about trees through educational displays. There will also be entertainment, face painting, and food available.
Date: Sun April 26, 2009
Time: 2:00pm – 4:00pm
Location: Derek Doubleday Arboretum, trailhead at 21200 block 56 Avenue
The first Arbour Day was celebrated in the State of Nebraska in 1872. This was in response to a State proclamation urging settlers and homesteaders to plant trees which would provide shade, shelter, fruit, fuel, and beauty for residents of the largely treeless plains. Today, Arbour Day celebrations are held in communities all over North America. The day recognizes the importance of trees in our community through the protection, preservation, and revitalization of urban community forests.
