Saturday, September 10, Bob Brandt, assisted by

Ron Fechner and John Moss, planted a Post Oak tree near

the walking path at the Park. It was in honor of Retree Nebraska

week which is September 18-24. Brandt is an ambassador

for the Nebraska Statewide Arboretum, which sponsors the

event. The Post Oak is native to Oklahoma, a member of 

the white oak family, and is distinguished by its rounded leaves.

No matter what your political affiliation is:

"It has been said that politics is the second oldest

profession. I have learned that it bears a striking

resemblance to the first."
