On August 6, 2017 13 teams (over 40 adults and children) went out looking for the 17 favorite trees chosen this year for our hunt. Students at the Chebeague Island School wrote up a story of each tree from the tree's perspective. Each team took selfies and photos of the themselves with the tree when they were able. A few moments were lost when phones ran out of battery and a few just went out for the fun of it. Below are most of the pictures taken. Each team received a library poster, a tree poster, a land trust frisbee, backpack and more. Treats were handed out at the Library as the teams returned for their prizes. Everyone loved it and can't wait for next year. A lot of people talked about special trees they would like to nominate if we do it again and we still have many trees that were not picked this year. We are all looking at trees differently now for sure. This winter the 3-5 classroom will be studying trees.

Tree posters are available for sale at the library for $15.
