Members of the Camden Lions Club, in keeping with the international club president’s commitment to plant 1 million trees worldwide, did their part in December, planting several trees in Boykin Park. Local members who participated in this project were Lions David Beard, Chuck Buseck, Steve Kelly, Roger Smoak, Larry Shea, Alex Etters, Ed Stokes, Dan Outlaw, Pete Dementer, Dan Lovatt, Phil McGee and Rich Pinkerton, chairman for the project. The Camden Lions Club received the trees through a grant from the Palmetto Pride Program.
