This year Creek ReLeaf will be on November 23rd from 9 to noon in Charlotte, along Irwin Creek at Whitehurst Road. We will plant 1,800 trees to create a natural forest habitat that will help protect the creek from damaging storm water runoff. Lunch will be provided following the planting and we will also raffle off some great prizes.

To plant 1,800 trees we will need at least 400 volunteers. Please register at www.creekreleaf.com if you are able to participate. Please also encourage your friends and colleagues to register as well. Families and kids are welcome.

We hope you realize how important your support is to our tree planting effort. Last year 500 of you came out and planted 1,800 trees, bringing the total number of Creek ReLeaf trees planted to over 12,000. Without your support this would not be possible.

Creek ReLeaf is a collaborative effort of the Charlotte Public Tree Fund, Sierra Club, Central Piedmont Community College and Charlotte-Mecklenburg Stormwater Services. Funding this year is provided by the 704 Group and the City of Charlotte.
