Burt Freedman, an outdoor education specialist with the Environmental Center for Our Schools (ECOS), will point out some of the magnificent trees in the Quadrangle neighborhood during a walking tour on Saturday, June 11, from 10:30 am to noon. Participants will be surprised to discover some unusual old trees which have been here for many years and often go unnoticed.

The tour is part of the Second Saturday Walking Tour series, co-sponsored by the Armoury-Quadrangle Civic Association and the Springfield Museums. Walking tour tickets may be purchased in the museum Welcome Center at 21 Edwards Street on the day of the event. Tickets are free for members of the civic association or of the museums. Tickets for non-members are $5 per person. All proceeds will go toward improvements to the neighborhood.
