EXCITING NEWS!! We are very pleased to report that since our last event in August a great deal of progress has been made in the restoration of Oakland Cemetery. Many volunteers have been showing up on a regular basis to mow, W**d-whack and trim. As a result, neighbors and family members visiting the cemetery tell us that Oakland is in the best shape it has been in in years. It is an amazing success story!
Yet, there is still plenty of work to be done here. We continue to move forward towards a permanent solution of upkeep for this historical cemetery. In light of all this, we are asking that those WITH EQUIPMENT to come on Saturday, September 21st. What is needed are LAWNMOWERS, W**d-WHACKERS, RAKES, CHAIN SAWS, LOPPERS and HAND CLIPPERS. We have an ample supply of bags - both yard waste bags and large trash bags. Our concern is that, unless you have a piece of equipment, or you are working with someone as a team who has equipment, there may not be much for you to do.
But, certainly, come. Enjoy sharing in this terrific success story. It is truly a story of team, and so many selfless individuals who are willing to give of themselves to bless others, with no expectation of receiving anything in return except the satisfaction of having made a difference for our neighbors.
All are welcome, of course. We celebrate together! We will officially do that at a later date. Please come just to see what has been accomplished!
