Does anybody know why they cut down the White Sycamore tree in the Junction? I don't remember it being dead or anything like that.

It had been dead for awhile. According to Carskadon, an arborist said that it would not be safe for this football season, thus necessitating our action...

Sucks. Was a very unique tree...

Lester Estes did not approve of this kulling. We need an official statement from the top.

I believe I was standing under that tree with Lester when I learned everything I ever wanted to know about a Sycamore.
