2017 Annual Report
Two thousand and seventeen was another outstanding year for the Arboretum. We set records in membership and in attendance at our Winter Symposium, Spring Egg Hunt, Raulston Blooms!, and Moonlight in the Garden. We did a lot of traveling, including a speaking engagement and plant collecting trip in China, and leading a tour to Italy, Monaco, and France. In addition, more than $42,100 was given towards our end-of-year appeal for garden improvements, landscaping lighting, and other renovations
Membership Makes a Difference
Thank you for your support and advocacy of the JC Raulston Arboretum through the membership program. Memberships are the primary unrestricted support for the JCRA's daily operations and vital for its success. Thanks to these special friends who gave the gift of membership—the gift that keeps giving all year!

Volunteers
Every year we are amazed with the amount of time and effort our volunteers devote to the Arboretum. Two thousand and seventeen is no different. Our volunteers continue to take on new projects and look for ways to make the Arboretum a wonderful place to visit and enjoy. Though we try to thank them in many ways, it will never be enough. As you can see from the number of hours our volunteers log each year, they are an amazing group. We are truly grateful for all they do.
Volunteer Hours: January–December 2017
Our volunteers gave an amazing 12,420 hours of their time in 2017. Their efforts have made the Arboretum a showplace in the community.
