## About

The Galveston Island Tree Conservancy formed after Hurricane Ike's saltwater killed most of the island's trees, and it has been replanting streets, yards and parks since. Residents can volunteer at plantings or come to the yearly Arbor Day event. Salt-tolerant species are the point, since the next storm is a matter of when.
