Join me today at the West U Easter Spring Festival and Arbor Day event

April 12, 2019 by George Boehme

The West University Place Parks and Recreation Easter Spring Festival and Arbor Day is today. The event will be from 9 am – 11 am at the West University Recreation Center, located at 4210 Bellaire Blvd.

I will be distributing about 125 Tropical Milkweed plants that I have grown over the last five months for this occasion. This has been a great year for the Monarch butterfly population and I want to help all of you will start your own Monarch Butterfly garden.

But West U’s annual event will have much more. Children can enjoy bounce houses, a giant slide, an inflatable obstacle course, and mini-train rides, as well as activity booths offered by community partners. Bring your camera to take advantage of giant colored-egg selfie stations, snap a picture or two of the street performers, and of course, take photos with the Easter Bunny. Remember to bring your Easter basket – as prizes, including those for the winners of the Di-Eggo Counting Contest, will be given out.

And there is no better way to celebrate spring and especially Arbor Day than by planting a tree, and the West U Public Works Department urban forester will be giving trees away during the event. Trees will be given out on a first-come-first-serve basis. 

I hope to see you there.
