Memorial cherry tree planted for longtime Aiken park official
Family and friends joined the City of Aiken park commission to plant a Japanese flowering cherry in memory of Thomas Hammond, who served on the commission for over 30 years. The tree, funded by fellow members at a cost of $100, stands in a Fairfield Street parkway near his former home.
