Guthrie Theater is in the background.The Mill City Commons (MCC) Men's Coffee and Conversation group recently honored their long-time leader, Allan Burdick, with a tree through Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board. The bur oak was planted on May 23 along West River Parkway as an acknowledgement of Allan's 10+ years of service to the men's group and to all members of MCC.

Allan worked tirelessly to find ways to connect men to one another and the organization. MCC is an inclusive community of adults aged 55 and above who relish opportunities for friendship, socializing, and learning. To learn more, visit www.millcitycommons.org.
