WAA Day of Service

WAA members have a long history of volunteerism and in 2008 initiated an organized volunteer Day of Service as another opportunity for members to join forces and assist in worthy projects.

WAA's Day of Service provides necessary resources to communities or organizations in need of the skills, talent, and equipment that our members are able to provide. Past projects include clearing Buckthorn and other invasive species for restoration, and assistance in EAB infested tree removal at the site of Wisconsin's first EAB find.

2011 WAA Day of Service Applications are now being accepted. Applications and supporting documents are due by January 10, 2011. Accepted projects will be announced during the WAA Business Meeting at the 2011 WAA Annual Conference in Green Bay, January 30-February 1, 2011. 

If you have any questions regarding WAA's Day of Service, please contact Eric Petersen.

The 2010 Day of Service was awarded to the City of Muskego, please read the following.

Greetings,

The City of Muskego is very grateful for the Day of Service that WAA members provided last Wednesday at Engel Conservation Area in Muskego. With your valuable work in the removal of potential hazard trees and branches park patrons can more safely enjoy hiking the nature trails. It is remarkable that Wisconsin Arborist Association provides this generous volunteer service to the community and is evidence that WAA is truly a class organization.

Thanks again!
