We invite you to volunteer in our second Caring for Your Cemetery Day!
Most members of the public are unaware that cemeteries are not-for-profit organizations that depend heavily on volunteer contributions. Through this event, we will raise awareness of the hard work and dedication that goes into cemeteries’ care, maintenance, and preservation and the significant impact additional volunteer assistance can provide.
Possible tasks include
Cleaning up small debris and trash
Removing downed branches, weeds, and overgrowth
Scattering grass seed
Other light tasks appropriate for untrained volunteers
We hope this project will generate interest in our cemetery, especially among younger people, serve as a recruitment tool for future volunteers or even officers and trustees/ directors, and identify local people with skills that our cemetery needs.
