ANNUAL SPRING CLEANUP
Posted April 17, 2021
Every year in the Spring, the VanVechten Cemetery Board of Trustees holds its annual meeting. Typically the meeting is combined with an annual cleanup so the cemetery is ready for visitors. But, with the pandemic, our meeting will be held virtually again this year so cleanup was held separately. We did have a great turnout today - even with the rain and snow over the last two days. And the wind was both friend and foe this year - taking care of many leaves but leaving branches and limbs in its wake. We have many young family members who pitch in and provide the lion's share of the cleanup effort. The Cemetery is fortunate to have such a great group of enthusiastic kids to help and the work is completed in good order!
