TREES ARE AVAILABLE FROM THE CITY

Fifteen trees, possibly more, are available to Lake Shores residents this coming fall. The City of Fort Wayne will plant them in the park strips. These trees are available on a first-come first-serve basis, whether or not you had an Ash tree removed. A number are already spoken for.  If you are interested, you need to contact Walt Halley at 747-0165 as soon as possible.
