Holiday Builders And Basketball Hall of Famer Nancy Lieberman Help Kick Off Earth Week By Planting Trees in Plano, Texas 25 Trees Planted in Bob Woodruff Park To 'Green Up' Community and Help Celebrate 25th Anniversary.

April 21, 2008 - Holiday Builders, an award-winning homebuilder celebrating 25 years of quality building, and Basketball Hall of Famer Nancy Lieberman today kicked off Earth Week by planting 25 trees at Bob Woodruff Park in Plano, Texas. Rockwall-based Land Art, a trusted vendor partner of Holiday Builders, graciously donated labor and Pecan and Oak Burr trees for the event.

Holiday Builders' CEO, Kim Shelpman and Ms. Lieberman were joined by Employee-Owners from the builder's Dallas-Fort Worth Division to help plant the trees and 'green up' the community. Holiday Builders worked with Michael Sultan, head arborist for the City of Plano, to secure a strategic location for the trees at the north end of the park.

"Holiday Builders is proud to kick off Earth Week with our neighbors in Plano," said Kim Shelpman. "Given that the U.S Department of Agriculture emphasizes that the net cooling effect of a young, healthy tree is equivalent to ten room-size air conditioners operating 20 hours a day, we hope that other businesses in the community follow our lead by helping to 'add green' to our community."

Ms. Lieberman added: "I challenge everyone to plant at least one tree this week to help us celebrate Earth Week. We invite North Texas to work towards leaving a smaller footprint on the environment. In fact, if you visit a Holiday Builders Showcase this week, we'll help you get started by giving you a tree sapling, while supplies last, just for stopping by."
