Join us for a demo of “How To Plant A Tree” by UMass Landscape Services and the Waugh Arboretum Committee. We will be planting an American Dream Oak and will have give-aways celebrating the campus Waugh Arboretum.
This event is being promoted as part of a series of Inauguration Weekend/Founders Day activities highlighting campus points of pride and building community.
Founders Day is an annual opportunity to reflect on the rich and storied history of UMass Amherst, take pride in its present standing, and look toward its future. In combination with the Inauguration of Chancellor Javier Reyes, this year’s festivities will be particularly impactful.
