Grateful for the @apsFYI employees who volunteered to help plant shade trees in Ajo. Many happy residents will be provided shade with minimal water usage thanks to the APS Community Tree program & Ajo Garden Club. 75 trees were planted in Ajo by volunteers over a few days.
This may come as a huge shock, but there’s yet another @Verizon outage in our area @VerizonSupport
