Several flags line Mobile Street Wednesday, marking the spot where trees will be planted this weekend as part of the community beautification effort.

Volunteers are needed to plant 125 trees on Mobile Street between Springhill Avenue and the University of South Alabama Medical Center on Saturday, Feb. 2, 2013, from 8 a.m. until noon.
The tree planting is in partnership with Keep Mobile Beautiful and is part of the beautification effort organized by Mobile City Councilman Fred Richardson and the USA Health System. Business leaders and residents from the Crichton community, as well as city and county officials, met at the USA Medical Center on June 1, 2012, to initiate a community effort toward beautification of the neighborhood, particularly Mobile Street.
Volunteers will meet at Williams Chapel at the corner of Mobile Street and Hayles Street and will need to bring gloves, as well as a shovel or rake.
Refreshments will be provided. If you are interested in helping, call Denise at 208-6029 to RSVP.
