For every goal the Penguins score at home, the Pittsburgh area gets a new tree

A total of 53 fourth- and eighth-graders gathered Thursday morning to plant seven, new Eastern red cedar trees as part of a program involving a national tree-care company, the local nonprofit Tree Pittsburgh and the Pittsburgh Penguins. For the second year in a row, the Kent, Ohio-based Davey Tree Expert Company is planting a tree in Allegheny County for each goal scored by the Pittsburgh Penguins at PPG Paints Arena this season, said Sandra L. Reid, the tree company’s vice president of corporate communications and strategic planning.
