The Woodlands will host its 30th Anniversary Celebration of Arbor Day on Saturday, January 20, 2007 from 10 am - 2 pm at a new venue this year - Town Green Park in The Woodlands Town Center. In addition to the traditional Tree-Giveaway , the family-oriented event will feature the birthday celebration for lovable mascot of The Woodlands, Puffy Pine Cone . Puffy has invited many of his local mascot friends to join him on his special day. Giant inflatable rides, face painting, free children’s gifts and free birthday cupcakes are highlights of the event. Musical performances by popular youth hip-hop group, Savvy, and up-and-coming opening act, The Co , will add to the festivities.

Over 28,000 tree seedlings in eight different varieties will be distributed free, continuing a 30-year tradition that began in 1977. This will bring the total distributed over the years to 780,000 tree seedlings that enhance the community’s forested environment.
