Following the celebration of the 80th anniversary of the founding Rotary Club Romania and impulses coming from the leaders of District 2241, VARANA Rotary Club Focsani decided to join in a national initiative to celebrate this significant event by planting 80 trees and shrubs.
Accordingly, on 01.09.2009, VARANA Rotary Club members planted 25 saplings of birch and 75 magnolia trees in Balcescu park and in the square in front of theatre “Maior Gh.Pastia” from Focsani. In presence of the mayor, representatives of the city hall and local council and the media, about 20 members of Rotary Club gathered in the park, at 10.00 a.m., “armed” with raincoats, shovels and spades. The activity was a success, not only because of the large number or trees planted (100), but particularly because of the joy that everyone has discovered, that to plant a tree with your own hands and feel how important it is to be part of a group animated by the same purpose.
