November 12, 2005 - Volunteers Plant 400 Trees Along Preston Ridge Trail The Friends of the Preston Ridge Trail, in partnership with the Mormon Church - 4th Ward, completed the first major tree planting along the Preston Ridge Trail on Saturday, November 12, 2005. More than 100 volunteers worked all day to plant trees and shrubs at 11 points along the Trail's 5 mile stretch running parallel to Meandering Way and west along the TXU utility lines to Campbell Green Park and Brentfield Elementary. The 4th Ward has adopted the Trail as a community project and will be handling the watering for the trees over the coming months.
