their environment and those who benefit from their
proliferation, the citizens of the Metroplex.

Oncor Awards “Know Before You Grow” Poster
Contest Winner
The Irving Rambler, June 12, 2008,
page 6
Neil Sperry presents Ryne Lambert, age 9, with a $2,000 savings
bond as the winner of the Irving “Know Before You Grow” poster
contest sponsored by Oncor, Neil Sperry, and Arborilogical
Services. Lambert’s artwork was selected as the winning poster
out of entries from participating students in the Irving Family
YMCA after-school program. Lambert’s artwork will also appear on
new tree tags placed on low-growing trees at W.W. Tree Farms in
Dallas to make consumers aware that these marked trees are
appropriate to plant near power lines. The winning poster will
also appear on bookmarks that will be available at five Irving
Public Library locations. Arborilogical Services judged the
posters. Steve Houser, owner and certified arborist, attended
the Media event.
