The newly formed Dayton Garden Club, led by Kathleen Bennett, planted a new tree in Courthouse Square Park in downtown Dayton this month. The tree was decorated for Dayton’s annual Christmas Tree Lighting, held this year on December 12th. The sequoia was donated by Francisco Galaviz to the Garden Club. The formation of the Club reinstates a long standing Dayton Garden Club tradition in this small town, dating back to the 1940s and perhaps further.
