Tree Planted In Century To Mark Sixth Anniversary Of Destructive EF-3 Tornado
February 16, 2022
A new red maple tree now stands near the splash pad at Showalter Park in Century.
The tree was planted by the town and Florida Forest Service Tuesday morning — the sixth anniversary of an EF-3 tornado that struck Century on February 15, 2016.
As it grows, it will provide shade from summer sun for splash pad and playground visitors.
