Greensburg has received a $20,000 grant
that is going toward replacing trees to the tornado-stricken,
south-central Kansas town.
Greensburg officials bought 61 trees with a $20,000 gift to
Greensburg from the U.S. Chamber Business Civic Leadership Center
and Siemens USA. C
An EF-5 tornado destroyed much of Greensburg five years ago. The
tornado also killed 13 people.
Stacy Barnes, museum director and director of tourism for
Greensburg, said the trees are another sign of progress for
Greensburg.
