CASSADAGA — The Tree Committee met recently to discuss the Arbor Day event that was planned for May 2.

The committee decided it best to reschedule the Arbor Day event for October 3 because of the pandemic. The committee reports that the same events will take place and it will be acceptable to plant trees in the fall.
