Ciao!
So che è un’ipotesi improbabile, ma Reddit sembra il posto PERFETTO per risolvere alcune missioni di conoscenza casuali!
Ho lavorato per diversi anni in un campo giovanile sulle montagne della California e ho cercato di mantenere viva parte della sua bella storia.
Abbiamo un lampione di Copenhagen con vista sul lago!
(Ho preso degli screenshot dalla storia e li ho aggiunti qui, ma vedrò se riesco ad aggiungere il testo al post sul mio computer in seguito)
Come dono reciproco alla città di Copenaghen, il campo ha inviato "Due tonnellate di amicizia": una fetta di albero di Sequoia Gigante della proprietà. Il campo ha un’altra fetta esposta in ufficio, ma non sono riuscito a farne una foto, quindi ho incluso immagini simili per rinfrescare i ricordi.
Qualcuno sa dove è finita la fetta di albero? Forse un museo? O un edificio per uffici?
Mi piacerebbe scoprirlo e riportare questa storia e questo racconto in primo piano nella mente delle persone.
Grazie per qualsiasi aiuto!

YMCA is known as KFUM in Denmark, I would recommend reaching out to them.
Try asking [Skovskolen](https://skovskolen.ku.dk) It is The Forest and Landscape College, University of Copenhagen. They might have the tree slice or know where it is.
I just bought access to Newspapers. Com and found an article from July 31, 1966 saying “…it is 14″ thick… is 6 feet 4 inches in diameter and over 1,000 years old…”
It hadn’t been sent yet but was going to be sent the next week. It had to be cleared with the State Department of Forestry.
Does someone have access to Danish newspapers that might have reported it arriving in 1966?
Maybe this museum can help you?

The Green Museum is Denmark’s national museum for hunting, forestry, agriculture and food.
Went to the forestry and landscaping college myself, and im pretty sure they do not have the slice.
IIRC i recall seeing a large sequoia slice at the Museum of forestry, formerly located in Hørsholm, but im not sure whether its the friendship slice. It is now moved in to ‘Det grønne musem’ in Auning, they could be worth contacting.
The clips you posted mentioned Consul Frode Schoen, which i may suspect be Frode Schön a former danish ambassador from Ribe, that would be around at the time.
A scholarship was made in his name ‘Frode Schön og hustru legatet’ where the board might know some of his story. Ripensersamfundet, a local history- and resident association, may be helpful if this is actually the same guy.
