October 2, 2008 — Barely a year since it was built and made operational, the first Tree Nursery under the “Go Green, Go for the Real Thing” project of BSP and Coca-Cola Philippines is now in full-scale production. More than 2,000 tree seedlings and saplings of various tree varieties (e.g. hard wood, ornamental, erosion control, etc.) are now available to supply the many tree planting activities lined up by the BSP, with hundreds of new seedlings added every week.

The BSP Tree Nursery can supply youth organizations, like-minded NGOs, private businesses, private individuals, and other entities interested in procuring tree seedlings/saplings for their tree planting projects.

On June 19, 2008 several BSP National Office staff joined more than 100 Scouts and Scouters from the BSP Manila Council in going to Vitos, Tondo, Manila to participate in the inauguration rites of “Paraiso ng Batang Maynila,” a children’s park created under the leadership of Manila Mayor Fred Lim.

BSP’s special participation in the said event was arranged just a few weeks before the inauguration rites. On May 24, Mayor Fred Lim was the special guest of honor in the formal launching event of the Go Green! Go for the Real Thing!” project of the Boy Scouts of the Philippines (BSP) in partnership with Coca-Cola. Impressed by the program, Mayor Lim invited the BSP to plant trees in the children’s park that he is opening in June.

Thus led to the very meaningful participation of BSP in the inauguration of the city’s new children’s park. Some 30 trees from the Go Green! Go for the Real Thing! Tree Nursery were brought to the site and planted on the same day.

Joining Mayor Lim and representing BSP National President Jojo Binay in the event was BSP Secretary General J. Rizal Pangilinan. BSP National Executive Board Member and Go Green! Go for the Real Thing! primary proponent, Jose Eduardo C. Delgado, was also present.
