Texas State University celebrates Arbor Day. Kelsey Johnson has more in this Bobcat Update.

Arbor Day is observed nationally to call attention to trees and other plant life in hopes that Americans will help nurture and preserve them for future generations. The Arbor Day Festival is designed to educate the public on the proper maintenance of trees. But this year Arbor Day was handled differently on campus. Due to the drought, no trees were planted at the festival. Campus Recreation Director Glen Hanley says mulching seemed more appropriate.

The Arbor Day event brings awareness to the environment. Bobcat Blend Representative, Kristen Rathbone, says people can always do their part to help preserve the environment.

The Arbor Day program involved several organizations, including the City of San Marcos-Habitat Conservation, Texas State Storm Water Protection, Bobcat Blend and Texas State-Recycling Services. For Bobcat Update, I'm Kelsey Johnson.
