Dear Fellow Barney Street Cemetery Volunteers,

The place is looking great and we are so grateful to those who have been able to help out at the first two work sessions this season, on April 12 and/or June 15 (see below list).

While the thick, healthy growth of plants is keeping weeds down quite a bit, our attention is needed once again. This is a busy time for many of you, but if you can squeeze in an hour at the site, that would be a huge help.

Hope you can join us Wed. July 27

beginning at 6:00 pm for an hour or so!

• Please bring your own gardening gloves, drinking water an any hand tools you'd like.
• We'll provide yard waste bags, extra tools and (adult) beverages for those who would like to stay and socialize when the work wraps up😊.
• Feel free to bring friends, and to forward this invite to others who might find of interest. Many hands make light work!
• If there is significant rain we will reschedule at a date to be announced.

Hope to see you there,
