Memorial Tree Program

The Memorial Tree Program was founded by the alumnae to beautify the "barren grounds" surrounding Le Mans. Planting a memorial tree continues today as a loving remembrance and living memorial for the deceased members of the Saint Mary's family. A plaque is displayed on each tree with a memorial inscription as well as the name of the species. Trees can be planted in a number of campus settings. Site and species selection are conducted in consultation with the donor,
the family, and the College. Cost is $500.bench on campus in spring with pink and white tulips

Teakwood Bench

Both useful and graceful, teak benches are built to endure and provide perpetual tributes for members of the Saint Mary's family. A plaque for a personalized inscription is included for display on each bench. Like the memorial trees, the teak benches are suitable for placement in a variety of campus settings. Site selection is conducted in consultation with the donor, the family, and the College. Cost is $2500.
