Arbor Day is celebrated at Texas State in a time-honored tradition with the planting of trees. Bobcat Update's Michael Garcia has the story.

Trees are important to sustaining life on Earth. They provide a canopy for shade and bring beauty to landscapes year round, and they produce oxygen. So, recognizing their importance seems fitting when tree planting ceremonies are held on Arbor Day. To celebrate the event at Texas State, staff and students planted 30 trees.

Texas State University has been recognized by the Arbor Day Foundation as a Tree Campus U-S-A school. Tree Campus U-S-A promotes best practices in campus forestry. The goal of the program is to honor college campuses and the leaders of their surrounding communities for promoting healthy urban forest management and environmental stewardship.

The 30 trees planted last Friday were Red Oak, Desert Willow, Lace Bark Elm and Sycamore. For Bobcat Update, I'm Michael Garcia.
