SouthPoint Financial Credit Union’s Branch Presidents spent the last week of April delivering Meyer Spruce saplings to area schools in celebration of Arbor Day.

Arbor Day is a holiday that celebrates the planting, upkeep and preservation of trees. SouthPoint Branch Presidents Max Meine, Megan Karg and Tom Battis explained the history of Arbor Day and provided coupons during their visits to area schools.

In total, SouthPoint donated 1,300 saplings to students at more than 22 schools within the credit union’s communities, including the areas of New Ulm, Sleepy Eye, Springfield, Lafayette, Lamberton, Comfrey, St. Peter, North Mankato, Waconia and Hutchinson.
