Keep Sugar Land Beautiful

Amerex Energy Services supported Trees Across Sugar Land by donating and planting five 30 gallon native hardwoods in partnership with Keep Sugar Land Beautiful and the City of Sugar Land. On March 23, Amerex employees rolled up their sleeves and spent the afternoon planting the beautiful elm, live oak, and cypress trees in Pawms Spring Dog Park located in Sugar Land Memorial Park.

Saturday, November 13
10:00 am - noon
Lost Creek Park

You are invited to help us plant and mulch 300 five gallon native hardwoods and 1,000 saplings in Oyster Creek and Lost Creek Parks. The great news is that Native Land Design is digging all of the holes for the 300 five gallon trees – so you won’t have to!

If you are interested in participating, please complete the attached waiver and register at the event at 10:00 am. Please note volunteers under age 18 must be accompanied by a registered adult volunteer. All volunteers will receive a free commemorative t-shirt.

Please make plans to join us.

Trees Across Sugar Land Volunteer Waiver

Kiva Mann, TelfairLife Coordinator for Newland Communities’ 2,018-acre Telfair master-planned community, presented a $4,000 donation to Keep Sugar Land Beautiful Executive Director Vicki Gist and Margaret Hall Spencer, president of the board for KSLB.  The donation was part of a community-wide celebration held on National Arbor Day, April 24.  Fifth-graders from Cornerstone Elementary School in Telfair made speeches about the environmental importance of planting trees, and each student took home a live oak sapling donated by Houston Landscape Unlimited.  The event ended with the students helping to plant a live oak tree across from their school.  It was the third annual Arbor Day celebration at Telfair, located at U.S. 59 South and University Blvd.
