HUTCHINSON, KAN. – Landscaping of the Kansas Underground Salt Museum visitors center, Avenue G and Airport Road, will begin with the planting of twelve trees donated by the Hutchinson Tree Board. The project was made possible by a donation from the ALCOA Foundation to the Tree Board.

 

“We are very grateful to the Tree Board and ALCOA for selecting our museum as the recipient of twelve trees,” said Linda Schmitt, executive director of the Reno County Historical Society. “This is the first part of our multi-stage landscaping plan and we know the addition of trees will greatly enhance our curb appeal.”

ALCOA employees along with members of the Tree Board will plant the trees this Saturday, October 18, beginning at 9 a.m. "As much as we appreciate the trees," Schmitt commented, "it is so thoughtful of the employees and board members to donate their time to handle all the planting. This is just another example of the outstanding support the museum receives from our community."
