VOLUNTEER WORK DAYS
May 21 -June 25-July 23

9:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. (noon)

Community-wide volunteer work days are scheduled for the 4th Saturday of every month (with the exception of December, January and February). Volunteering at Elmwood is not only a great way to help the physical appearance of the cemetery, it is a great way to make new friends and learn more about this historic treasure.

You will get back more than you put it. Volunteers can help out by re-setting gravestones, trimming branches, removing weeds, raking leaves, cleaning around gravestones, picking up trash, cleaning the beautiful Armour Chapel, or in a myriad of other ways.

Elmwood is totally dependent on volunteers and donations for its preservation. If you or your group would like to help out at one of these Saturday work days, please contact Elmwood board member, Bruce Mathews, at bmathews2@kc.rr.com.

EAGLE SCOUT PROJECTS

If you know of a Boy Scout who is working toward his Eagle award Elmwood Cemetery is the perfect place for his project. In the past these Scouts have helped re-set Civil War gravestones that have sunk over the years. This is just one example of how working on the Eagle award can be a win-win situation for both the Scout and the grounds of Elmwood. For more information, or to schedule a work project, please contact Elmwood board member, Bruce Mathews at bmathews2@kc.rr.com.
