On Oct. 11, a tree-planting ceremony took place at the new Zachary police station, which is scheduled to open later this year.

Two 12-foot Eagleton holly trees were donated as part of WoodmenLife’s Giving Together Program. Chief Darryl Lawrence and Mayor David McDavid participated.

The Giving Together program, launched by WoodmenLife in 2019, encourages sales representatives to lead community service initiatives. WoodmenLife Insurance representative Rebecca Corkern joined Lawrence, McDavid, and several officers at the ceremony.

Following the event, WoodmenLife provided lunch for the landscaping crew, mayor and police officers.
