Roseburg Parks and Recreation’s Arbor Day Photo Contest is underway.

A city release said residents are encouraged to grab their camera and explore the beauty of Roseburg trees, including the great variety found in city parks. Capture a favorite tree on film and possibly get the photo featured in the Spring 2025 City Connection e-newsletter. The deadline to enter is 5:00 p.m. on Friday, April 18th.

Roseburg Recreation Coordinator Tracy David said, “Spring is the perfect time to go tree hunting in Roseburg. The trees are blooming, everything’s turning green again, and it should make for some really interesting photos”.  David said, “Since Roseburg is a designated Tree City USA, there are many to choose from”.

The top three photos will be announced and showcased on Arbor Day – Friday April 25th on the Roseburg Parks and Recreation Facebook page.
