Tree Dedication in Honor of Bill Hilton, May 12

Please join with the Green Sanctuary Committee as we dedicate one of the new native Valley Oaks on the UUCPA campus in honor of Bill Hilton, a leader in our efforts to combat climate change on campus and in the wider community. The dedication will be at noon on May 12, just as we are finishing up 2nd Sunday lunch and right before the Green Sanctuary Committee meeting. We will assemble in the small parking lot behind the kitchen.
