IGAHometown Trees On Satui!day, October 2lst, in ovef 100 commluni- ties across Ontario, includ- ing Orono, !GA food store owners and staff will be planting thoUisands of trees in support of a major forestation project. Last year, and tfie year before, this HometojWn Trees plant- îng initiativË succecded in, not only profducing environ- mental bendfits, but also in focusing the collective efforts of thousand§ Of volunteers for the bett@rment of their commuinitie§- "We are at the point now where the oDvious success of past effort.-- is encouraging more- participants to join us in our tree pianting efforts," explains 'fin Carter of Oshawa Fodds, wholesaler to IGA. -Matiy non-affiliated tree-planting projects, while useful, do tipt provide the cumulative lDenefit that our project is starting to deliver. Tree-plantirlg requires an on-going commitmnent to add to the prograln on a regular basis, employiflg tree'whips' and 'sapling@' that are large; and well suîted to the envi- ronment, 50 as to ensure a high survivai rate. IGA and their co-spotisor Coca-Cola Beverages, believe in the contribution to community improvement offered by trees and so is mnaking a long-term commitment to this form of environmental support." Oshawa Food's Ontario IGA program is part of IGA Canada's national effort to plant trees in hundreds of towns across the country. In turn, this total Canadian effort is linked to IGA's world-wide tree planting, program, which is underway as well in the United States-, Australia, Korea, and Japan. The IGA program, which adds millions of trees each year, is the largest private tree-planting initiative in the world. "Lt is exciting to think, Suddenly, your - baby's almost grown. up.

So much better to enrol your teenfirst in the Young Drivers of Canada course. To learn defensive when you plant one of these three foot White Ash trees, about the cumulative affect of such -a small effort," sug- gests Carter. "It is -possible through thîs activity to see how an individual person's modest initiative, when added to similar work con- ducted, throughout Ontario, Canada, and even the world, can begin to make, over some years, an enormous difference to our environ- ment. With the beneficial resuits becoming more obvi- ous each year, IGA grocers hope that the public will increasingly participate in this most worthwhile envi- ronmental initiative." emergency braking and, collision avoidance. -~ Then spend your practice time 1. together, drivmng with confidence!
