On the Martin Luther King, Jr. Day of Service, members of the Historic Clarkesville Cemetery Preservation, Inc. board of directors said thank you to Woodmen Life representative Ricky Pruitt for the donation of a U.S. flag. A ceremony is planned to retire the current flag and raise the new one. Shown, from left, are HCCP, Inc. board members Polly Earle, Brooks Garcia, Barrie Aycock and Pruitt. #OldClarkesvilleCemetery #Wherehistoryneverdies #OldGlory
Yesterday was a day of service in honor of Martin Luther King day. We had 24 very enthusiastic students from the Tallulah Falls School come and help do cleanup and spread mulch. They also learned about the cemetery, how to find dead people with coat hangers, how many volts from a lightning bolt it takes to kill a hemlock and how to work smart not hard. They also helped Miss Polly, head of restoration, move a very heavy headstone so that a new footing could be poured. All in all it was a great day! Thank you Tallulah Falls School for your service. #wedigthedead #herdingcats #mlkdayofservice #giterdone #oldclarkesvillecemetery #iseedeadpeople #whenlightningstrikes #10,000volts
