Hello Greenlawn Cemetery & The F. Carroll Sargent Arboretum Friends,
If you missed the Cemetery Commission meeting discussion about the proposed ADA access to the Dickson Chapel last week, please join in on this meeting. You will see the same presentation and have a chance to give feedback and ask any questions. If you were on the Cemetery Commission meeting and still have more questions and feedback please join in. This is a big deal and is about ADA access to an 1894 High Victorian, gothic chapel in Greenlawn Cemetery and the F. Carroll Sargent Arboretum at Greenlawn Cemetery.
Community input is welcomed and makes a difference! Please get invoiced.
Thank you for your support.
More people make bigger and better things happen.
Everyone working together is making a difference.
The Friends of Greenlawn
