Dr. Evergleam, the Aluminum Arborist (Jordan Kabat), will be opening his Glittering ER to all those with repair needs for their Evergleam trees. At more than sixty years old, many aluminum trees have seen better days and could use a little TLC. Kabat has spent thousands of hours restoring aluminum trees and their accessories, and MPL is excited to connect his expertise with the general public. With the assistance of the extremely capable, Nurse Sparkle (Barb Bundy-Jost), the Doctor will see patients in the Second Floor Balkansky Evergleam-ER on Saturday, December 2, from 10 AM- 1 PM.

Appointments must be made in advance via online registration. Please visit the Manitowoc Public Library website event page beginning on Monday, November 13, at 9 AM to sign up for a spot.

Registrants will be contacted personally before December 2 in order for Dr. Evergleam to assess particular issues and arrange an adequate one-on-one time slot. Should there be several individuals with similar aluminum tree ailments, these registrations will be addressed as a group appointment.
