On Tuesday, May 12 at 10:00 am, we will gather at Maple Root Cemetery on Harkney Hill Road in Coventry to flag veterans' graves. All are welcome to join. Parking is available in the Maple Root Baptist Church parking lot across from the cemetery, within the cemetery, or in the adjacent Plainland Cemetery. After the flagging, take some time to explore the cemetery's historic gravestones, which range from early crudely carved fieldstones to slate, marble, and granite, including a notable 'zinkie' monument.
