Bridgestone Americas’ truck tire plant in Warren County, Tenn., celebrated its 20th anniversary this week.

As part of the company’s anniversary celebration, the facility officially dedicated its Bridgestone Environmental Education Classroom & Habitat (BEECH) learning pavilion. Since last year, the BEECH wildlife habitat program has provided more than 5,000 young people with environmental education on outdoor nature trails and in an advanced, hands-on classroom. The students learn important lessons about recycling, conservation and the shared responsibility to protect the environment.
