Thirty members of the Fremont Environmental Club along with Town of Fremont
employees spent April 24,2008 planting 25 Blue Spruce Trees along West Street next to the Fremont High School Baseball diamond. The trees will create a wind break for the baseball diamond as they mature. Their efforts were a key part of the Town of Fremont's Arbor Day celebration along with a cooperative event titled “Treemendously Treerific" hosted by the Fremont Public Library and Fremont Park Board on-April 25,2008 at the Fremont Town Park. Tree seedlings were given away and games, crafts, and refreshments were served. The trees were purchased from Baker's Acres with funds raised from the E Club's "Think Fremont First" promotion, and funds from the Fremont Community Schools. The E-Club students donated funds from their fundraiser to the Town of Fremont to start a Memory Tree Program and the 25 trees planted are in memory of past Fremont Community School educators. The students spent the morning cleaning a nature area around Fremont, enjoyed a lunch in the Town Park provided by the Town of Fremont, and planted trees in the afternoon.
