TREE O'CLOCK

Cott Road, Saturday 5th December 11am

Take a Bough certificateOn Saturday 5th Decemberr there was a world record attempt at tree planting called Tree O'Clock.

As part of this, and to celebrate 100 years of Guiding in 2009, Transition Lostwithiel planted a Rowan tree in the new flower bed to celebrate Guiding at Cott Road. Mayor Vic May and volunteers helped plant the tree.

The world record for trees planted by hand by any number of people within a single hour was not broken, but a new world record was set for trees planted by hand, by no more than 100 people, at a single site, within a single hour.

Transition Lostwithiel received a "Take A Bough" certificate for its participation.
