Starting the week before Memorial Day, the trustees ensure that benches are placed on the grounds for the public, raise and lower the flag, place flags on the servicemen's graves, set up a collection station for donations, and provide assistance to visitors looking for graves. |

Plots and Records

Any descendant of someone buried at the cemetery or anyone that owns a plot is eligible to vote, run for office, or nominate a candidate. Please attend. |
