A huge shout out to Fred and Jo Gibson: Tony and Judson Palmer: Jeffrey Longmire and his friend (missed his name) for their hard work cleaning up the abandoned Oaks Cemetery in Chuck Swan Wildlife Management Area on Monday. This volunteer work crew cleaned up fallen trees, mowed down the overgrowth, and reset some of the fallen stones. Another volunteer work day to finish this project will be scheduled soon. All volunteers are welcome.
