City handing out free trees

Edmond Electric and Edmond Urban Forestry are teaming up with The Arbor Day Foundation to bring our community the Energy-Saving Trees Program.

This program offers free trees along with an easy-to-use online mapping tool to take the guesswork out of tree planting.

By entering simple information about your home and yard, the tool calculates where to strategically plant trees for the greatest energy and money-saving benefits. To date, Edmond Electric has given out 2,130 free trees to residents which the Arbor Day Foundation estimates results in a 2.8 million kWh reduction.

“Edmond Electric recognizes the importance of trees for health and quality of life, and they can also help lower energy costs,” said Program Coordinator

Hannah Stewart. “Strategically planting trees will not only lower energy costs but will provide comfort and benefits to families for years to come.”

There will be 270 5-gallon trees available to Edmond residents. Residents will be able to reserve a free tree beginning April 3 by visiting www.arborday.org/edmondelectric.

Trees will be available for pickup at Bickham-Rudkin Park located at 33rd & Rankin from 2 to 6 p.m. on April 6 and April 7.

The pickup event will be set up to where residents will stay in their vehicles and staff will load their tree. Residents picking up a tree are encouraged to bring a large trash bag to protect their cars from soil. These trees will be 5-gallon trees, so a small SUV or truck is recommended for pickup.

Wind Players from UK’s Top Chamber Orchestra to perform at Armstrong

The Wind Ensemble of the famed Academy of St. Martin in the Fields will perform at Armstrong Auditorium on Tuesday, Apr. 18 at 7:30 p.m. Making its U.S. debut, the ensemble will be joined by British pianist Caroline Palmer in a program featuring two quintets for winds and piano by Mozart and Beethoven and trios by Romantic Era composers Carl Reinecke and Erwin Schulhoff.

“The Academy’s name is one of the most prestigious in classical music,” said Ryan Malone, program director for Armstrong. “To host the principal wind players from this orchestra is a tremendous honor, and the evening is sure to be a special ex- perience for our audience.”

The Academy of St Martin in the Fields was founded by Sir Neville Marriner in 1958 and is currently led by Music Director Joshua Bell. The Academy’s Chamber Ensemble performs in multiple configurations, including the Academy Wind Ensemble, which consists of four players: John Roberts on oboe, James Burke on clarinet, Julie Price on bassoon and Stephen Stirling on horn.

Tickets start at $35 for adults and youth aged 6 and up (under 6 not recommended). For more information and to purchase tickets, please visit ArmstrongAuditorium.org or call the Box Office at (405) 285-1010.
