Save the Old Oak Tree
Tax deductible
Save Our Historic Tree
The over 300-400 year old tree at the former Pat's Hall is severely stressed due to the drought. Providence Hall purchased the property last year and has been consulting with professionals all year to determine the best course of action to save this valuable community icon.
Everyone that come onto the property has a story to tell about the old dance hall or the old tree. They share memories they have of growing up and attending baseball games, community dances and concerts under that giant live oak tree. Many people met their spouses there or tell us their parents met under the old tree. There are so many old memories and so many new to be made under the old oak tree but we must act now to save it.
The course of action is to remove the old interior concrete fence directly up against the trunk and the first layer of concrete dance floor leaving the outer dance floor. A drip system would have to be installed along with a treatment that includes boring holes deep to the root system.
The arborists believe that it is not a lost cause but we must act now and we need community support. Please help save the old tree for future generations. Your help is greatly appreciated.
