The Cemetery Board is looking into repairing damaged headstones in the historical section of the cemetery.  Time and weather have taken a toll on them.  The board will be establishing an “adopt a grave” program in the near future that will allow local residents interested in securing our history to donate to the renovation and recovery of these stones.

Some of the stones we are looking at repairing this summer can be seen below.
