On Friday, October 11, a tree planting ceremony took place at the new police station, which is scheduled to open later this year. Two 12-foot Eagleton Holly trees were donated as part of WoodmenLife’s Giving Together Program. Chief Darryl Lawrence and Mayor David McDavid participated in the planting.

The Giving Together program, launched by WoodmenLife in 2019, encourages sales representatives to lead community service initiatives. WoodmenLife Insurance representative Rebecca Corkern joined Chief Lawrence, Mayor McDavid, and several officers at the ceremony. Following the event, WoodmenLife generously provided lunch for the landscaping crew, Mayor, and Police Officers.
