More Than $520,000 Raised for Tree Research by Cyclists

"The STIHL Tour des Trees is one of the most important events we support each year," said Anita Gambill of STIHL Inc., the Tour's title sponsor and a leading manufacturer of outdoor power equipment. "The Tour positively influences the future of our environment as well as the tree care community that we work so closely with at STIHL."

Since the first Tour in 1992, the event has inspired more than 1,000 cyclists to participate and collectively generate more than $5.5 million for tree research and programs to educate the community. The STIHL Tour des Trees is a legacy that continues to grow and reach increasingly more supporters every year. Donations can still be made to the TREE Fund through the STIHL Tour des Trees website, www.stihltourdestrees.org, and photos from each of the events are available on the media page.
