The Centre Region Parks and Recreation Authority offers the opportunity to honor your Veteran or Hero through our tree planting program. The My Veteran/My Hero Tribute Tree Program is currently focused at regional parks, including Oak Hall Regional Park and Whitehall Road Regional Park. This program not only gives those an opportunity to honor their Veteran or Service Member, but also helps to beautify local parkland. This special initiative allows loved ones to honor and remember eligible Veterans/Heroes who have actively served in the US Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard, Merchant Marines, and Army Air Corps.
To reserve a Tribute Tree for your Veteran/Hero, please contact the CRPR Office at 814-231-3071. A minimum donation of $400 will honor your Veteran/Hero with a 2” caliper shade tree. Included with each My Veteran/My Hero tree is a post-mounted, anodized aluminum plaque beside each tree. A special QR code included on the plaque links to a CRPR webpage where your Veteran/Hero’s photo and biography resides. Please note that the selection of an American Beech or Cucumber Magnolia tree will increase the donation to $475.
