Members of the Morning Glory Garden Club gathered Wednesday at Ciscos Dog Park in Bryant Common to celebrate Arbor Day. 

This year the club planted two camellia bushes in memory of the late Amanda Cox.  She and her family loved camellias and grew many varieties, and Amanda loved animals and befriended the Liberty Humane Shelter in her will. 

The bushes were planted with the help of three workers from ESG, formerly OMI.
