WANTED!

WEIRD TREES

                       

 

To celebrate Arbor Day 2002, the Indiana Department of Natural Resources, Division of Forestry is searching for Indiana’s "weirdest" trees. Maybe the tree has almost completely swallowed a sign or other object; or maybe it has the most misshapen trunk you’ve ever seen. But for whatever reason, this tree just stands out as different!

To enter, take at least two color photographs of the tree that capture its uniqueness. On the back of each photo, write your name, address, phone number, and specific location of the tree (including county). Send these non-returnable photographs to Sam Carman, Division of Forestry, 402 W. Washington, Rm. W296, Indianapolis, IN 46204. Digital photos, along with the above information, can be emailed to scarman@dnr.state.in.us. Indiana’s district foresters will select the ‘weirdest" tree for each county, and these will be included in a booklet to be published later this year.

Entry deadline -- April 15, 2002
