Team members from Lippert Component facilities around the U.S. will spend time planting trees as a part of an Arbor Day celebration.
In a partnership with the City of South Bend’s Venues, Parks & Arts, about 20 team members from LCI Plant 58 will volunteer at South Bend’s Kelly Park on April 28 to help beautify the public space.
As part of the Kelly Park beautification, LCI team members will be planting arborvitae and boxwood trees. Later, LCI teams, along with their family members, will plant ten trees of various species at Muessel Grove Park, Brownfield Park, Keller Park, Pinhook Park, Riverside Drive, and Oakwood in South Bend.
In total, LCI team members will plant more than 100 trees around the U.S. on Arbor Day.
“By participating in Arbor Day activities, LCI is able to give back to not only the community but also to the environment,” said Erin Kent, LCI’s director of human resources. “Planting a tree is a small gesture to give back in a way that positively affects everyone.”
