Memorial�Tree & BenchAre you looking for a special way to mark the birth of a child, grandchild or celebrate a special birthday? Having trouble fi nding a unique wedding or anniversary gift? Looking for a way to memorializeloved ones who have passed away? Donating a memorial tree or bench to the City of Georgetown Parks and Recreation Department is the perfect solution for all these occasions. There are few other gifts that will be as long lasting as a tree. A tree will immortalize your personal occasion, and a benchwill give you and your family a place to go to remember. Either of these gifts will give back to your community in ways no other gift can. Memorial trees and benches will provide for a more enjoyable recreation experience for the citizens and visitors of Georgetown for many years to come.
