Pink Ribbons on Trees

[Betsy Burgeson]

Hello Everyone,

I have heard it through the "grapevine", not this grapevine though, that there have been a few worried residents out there that may have taken it upon themselves to remove pink ribbons from trees throughout the grounds because they thought the ribbons meant the tree was going to be removed.  

Please know that the ribbons are only markers for the arborist we have hired, to know which trees to evaluate, they are not removals.  The ribbons took over 2 full working days to put out throughout the grounds on over 130 trees and are extremely important for the arborist to be able to locate the correct trees for evaluations. 

If by some chance you happen to know of any of these ribbons that were inadvertently removed, please call the anonymous tip line (aka my office number) at (716) 357-6326 to let me know the location of the ribbons that were removed so I can replace them ASAP.   

Please feel free to share the tip line info with all of your CI friends too just in case they don't hear about it through THIS grapevine.

Have a wonderful day.

Appreciatively yours,

Betsy Burgeson
