Good Morning,
I just finished reading the article in Bozeman Magazine regarding saving our Beautiful Pine
Tree on 5th Ave. The article brought me to tears as I have walked past that tree for 20 plusyears. This tree has stood here longer than all of us. Watching all the seasons and chapters of
growth in this town. It is loved by so many. How can we let another Hotel owner get awaywith chopping this beautiful Grandmother down. She has plenty of life left. It would be an
absolute shame and travesty. We have to do something! This town has transformed since Ihave been here and it’s been bitter sweet. We need to keep some things alive and this is one of
them. If there is anything I can do to help save this tree please let me know.
SincerelyStacia Shapan
