Cemeteries contain an abundance of historical information, but those stories
can be lost if the cemetery is in disarray. The speakers will discuss the
importance of preserving, maintaining, and enhancing cemeteries.
Participants will learn how to establish a "friend group" for preservation
and relationships with governing agencies for the purpose of maintenance.

 

Participants can "attend" remotely, if they prefer. See our website for full
details.
