of the Chesapeake Bay and
its tributaries, Schnabel
said.
Manure is a significant
source of nutrient pollu-
tion in rural waterways, he
said, and fencing the
streams to keep the cattle
out can be mutually bene-
ficial for the farmer and
the state.
Farmers who keep their
cattle out of streams bene-
fit because the cows will
no longer be drinking from
the stream, which is con-
taminated with their ma-
nure and can lead to health
issues and increased vet-
erinarian costs, Schnabel
said.
By providing the cattle
with a new, clean water
source, they’re likely to
drink more water, he said,
which can mean better
milk production for dairy
cattle.
Hoff said his farm will be
pre- digging the holes for
the 1,000 trees, but volun-

HOW TO HELP
The Chesapeake Bay Foundation is still welcoming
volunteers for Saturday’s planting, which will run
from 9 a.m.-1 p.m.
For more information, contact Marcy Damon at
443- 482-2156 or e- mail MDrestoration@cbf.org.
Marcy Damon, grass-
roots restoration coordina-
tor for the CBF, said
volunteers will be coming
from all over the state, Vir-
ginia and Pennsylvania to
help with the tree planting,
which is one of the largest
the foundation has spon-
sored.
“It’s a good feel- good
event, but it’s also very ed-
ucational,” she said.
The foundation makes a
point to teach participants
about pollution in the
Chesapeake Bay, how the
trees will help keep the soil
in place and reduce nutri-
ent runoff, she said.
The trees that are being
planted Saturday came
from the foundation’s farm
in Prince George’s County,
Schnabel said.
They’ve chosen sycam-
ores, red maples and a va-
riety of oaks, which will all

mowing in between trees is

thing was taken care of and
the right people were being

The young MacKenzie
even said she wanted the
leftover funds from her life
insurance policy to go to the
organization, her mother
said.
“She truly loved taking
care of people,” Stuck said.
“She cared all the way until
the end.”
While focusing on Mac-
Kenzie’s kindness and gen-
erosity, Stuck said it’s diffi-

Cancer and the resulting
surgeries and chemotherapy
sessions had taken that
away, Stuck said. But no
matter the situation, Stuck
said her daughter was still
more concerned about other
people.
“At her age she should
have been doing her hair
and makeup with her
friends, but she never had
the chance to do that. But
she never complained,” she
said. “She still had that
spark, but just for other
things, like helping others.”
