Arbor Day is April 25—and there’s no better time to plant a tree and give back to the planet. Every tree you plant supports a cleaner, healthier community by improving air quality, providing wildlife habitat and helping cool your home.
Here in Columbus, we’re working toward a bold goal: 40 percent tree canopy cover by 2050. When you plant a tree, you’re helping us get one step closer to that future!
A few tips: Before you dig, call 811 or 800-362-2764 to check for underground utilities. And make sure you plant the tree the right way; here are some quick tips.
Let’s make Arbor Day a celebration of growth—one tree at a time.

We’ve teamed up with Youth on Course to make golf more accessible to Columbus youth! Kids ages 6-18 can now play a round of golf for just $5 at five City of Columbus courses—during select times—with a $40 annual Youth on Course membership. Financial assistance is available for those who qualify.
Once registered at youthoncourse.org/join, youth can book a tee time online or by calling a participating course directly.
Visit CRPDGolf.com for a list of participating courses and available times.
Let’s open the fairways to the next generation!
