Past Events

We were saddened to learn of the passing of arborist Larry Hanks. Larry has served as the Site Leader for the Camp Nelson since Saluting Branches began and was instrumental in establishing the event in Kentucky.

Larry was an avid advocate for trees and for the men and women that cared for them. He will be missed within the arborist community, please keep his family in your thoughts during this time.

We are humbled by this acknowledgment and proudly share it with all of you that offer your time and talents to make our veteran's memorials beautiful and safe for all who visit. Thank you to Tree Care Industry Association, our sponsors, and our 1000's of volunteers! #salutingbranches #arborists #veterans #servingheros #TCIA ... See MoreSee Less
