Two United Methodist Disaster Team volunteers prep a tree for planting outside Walter Kley s home. The volunteers have been planting two types of Ohio native trees in the Old North Dayton area since the 2019 tornados.
Members of the United Methodist Disaster Team have been driving from Columbus to Old North Dayton almost every month since the Memorial Day Tornadoes in 2019. They’ve been cleaning up and rebuilding areas that were hit the hardest.
On the weekend of April 17, over a dozen volunteers met up in the Old North Dayton neighborhood to help replant some trees that were uprooted by the storms.
