> The Clapp's Factory Cemetery Preservation League will be holding a
> Clean-Up Day at the cemetery on Saturday, October 7. Members of the group
> will be at the site all day (8 am to 6 pm) to coordinate volunteers from
> the community in picking up litter, removing dumped materials such as old
> roofing shingles and appliances, and clearing away dead trees and thick
> vines. If you can come for part of the day, please do so - and bring a
> friend! Volunteers are encouraged to bring insect repellent and a pair of
> work gloves. Also, if you can bring lawn equipment, such as snips,
> shears, shovels, handsaws, wheelbarrows, etc., these will come in handy.
>
> The cemetery is located in Columbus, on the RiverWalk, just south of where
> it ends at Lake Oliver Road (near Oliver Dam). Signs will be posted
> directing the way from the intersection of River Road and Lake Oliver
> Road, and parking will be at the entrance to the RiverWalk. Water and
> refreshments will be provided, and a Port-a-Potty will be available
> on-site. The CFCPL is a nonprofit, all-volunteer group dedicated to
> rescuing this cemetery from decades of neglect and vandalism.
>
> Please contact Kemis Massey at
> for more information and to let us know you're coming to help with the
> Clean-Up Day.
