An Oak-toberfest success: honoring Angelo Tsakopoulos

November 3, 2023

Angelo Tsakopoulos accepts an award in his honor at the 2023 Oak-toberfest celebration

In recognition of an extraordinary man at the heart of our community and the founding of The Sacramento Tree Foundation, we celebrated Angelo Tsakopoulos at Oak-toberfest on October 30th at the Sofia, the Home of the B Street Theater. Angelo’s dedication to trees and community cohesion through thoughtful urban planning has transformed our area, fostering inclusivity and camaraderie among neighbors. This annual gathering embodies Angelo’s unwavering commitment to the preservation of our urban forest and serves as a testament to his leadership in inspiring us all. 

We also would like to thank and acknowledge our sponsors of the evening’s festivities. Their sponsorship and dedication to our region’s trees ensures that our greater Sacramento community continues to be green.
