Mburgh Village to Remove Ailing Spruce

MIDDLEBURGH - The Middleburgh Village DPW will remove a dying blue spruce from the Village Park that is situated at the intersection of Main and River Streets on Monday.

Removing the spruce will allow for greater sunlight for the smaller trees nearby and prevent damage to the flags located behind them.

When much smaller, elementary school children would hang Christmas decorations from the tree's branches. The students now decorate smaller trees in the Memorial Park on upper Main Street.
