Lawrence Tucei the Live Oaks Project Director for the Native Tree Society commented concerning Stadium Woods on January 27, 2012:
“Areas with old trees such as these should be protected. There are many White Oaks in North America in the 50 – 70 year old range but the 200-500 year old trees are extremely rare.”
