SUMMARY:Cemetery Clean Up — Kearneysville Methodist Cemetery (Details and Map)
DESCRIPTION:Please bring: gloves\, clippers\, saws\, chainsaws\, etc. Addison is scheduling for there to be a dumpster to put the brush in. The main job is getting brush out. The cemetery is at the end of Granny Smith Lane. There isn’t a real address\, so you have to come via Stubbs Road. If people are coming from another direction and put in Granny Smith Lane\, it could take them through Rockwool‘s property. The property next to the cemetery is vacant so we are allowed to park there. Some of us will be there early\, so we’ll be able to direct people as to where to park. \nGoogle Map:

Our vision is a community where the lives of adults and children are enriched through music\, which provides a common language for building connections and kinship.

As a grant writer\, she secured more than $2 million for clients in arts & culture\, social services\, and animal welfare. Living in Ipswich\, Massachusetts until 2019\, she served for 9 years on the Town’s Planning Board\, where she chaired monthly meetings\, oversaw public hearings\, enacted local zoning bylaws\, and recommended policy changes.
