About the event
Arborists & Allies Annual Gala — A Fundraising Benefit for Tree Climb Alliance
March 21, 2026 | 5 –9 p.m. | Vernon Downs
The Arborists & Allies Annual Gala is Tree Climb Alliance’s premier fundraising event — an evening dedicated to celebrating the people who work among the trees and the community that supports them. Guests will enjoy a four hour reception with live music, an open bar 5-8pm, and chef-prepared appetizers while connecting with industry professionals, sponsors, and advocates for arborist safety and education.
The event will feature inspiring presentations, multimedia storytelling stations, and opportunities to support Tree Climb Alliance’s mission: advancing safety, mentorship, and workforce development across the green industry.
Sponsorships and memberships directly fund training programs, outreach events, and relief initiatives that help arborists and their families thrive. Together, we grow stronger — for the trees, and for each other.
