VIDEO ENTRY #1

Video Title: Run to Tree
Videographers: Sherry Lemcke

To stay in shape, I play hockey in the winter, and run in the summer. My goal each year is to be able to work my way up to a long run (20KM) that starts from my home or studio and goes through Springbank Park. I'm only on roads at the start and end of my run, the majority of it is along the beautiful trails that connect the parks. At the half way point, at the far end of Springbank park, there is (was) a huge Oak tree that I used to stop and stretch at (maybe even give it a hug!) but when I reached my tree this year, I discovered that it had been cut down. Even though it's not there, it's still my favourite tree in London.

VIDEO ENTRY #2

Video Title: University Heights Wading Pool Shady Tree
Videographers: Ambreena

"Hi, I am Ambreena and I am three. We are at the Wading Pool. We are under the tree. This gives us lots of shade, when we are at the wading pool. I love this tree because it gives us lots of shade."

VIDEO ENTRY #3

Video Title: The Super Shady Maple Tree
Videographers: Alessandro

Hi, my Name is Alessandro, I am five and I like this tree because it has lots of branches and so we can climb up and lots of leaves, and birds build nests in here and it's like super shady and that's about it.

VIDEO ENTRY #4

Video Title: The Alphabet Tree - Tree-Inspired Literacy
Videographers: Adoring Mom

We try to incorporate literacy into the daily lives of our children. We also love being outdoors, enjoying the many beautiful trees of "The Forest City". What could be better than to combine both activities? We decided to spend one beautiful summer evening creating tree-inspired art.
