IMPORTANT REMINDER!!!
The Lincoln County Historical Society is having a cleanup for South Beach Cemetery on Saturday, May 9 from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm. Several members of the Longview Hills Fishing Club showed an interest and have signed up at the SOLV website. The Historical Society is working with SOLV on this cleanup. Just wanted to make sure everyone was aware of it because they can use all the help they can get. For those of you who have never visited the South Beach Cemetery, it is really overgrown with trees and brush. Some of the graves are from the 1800's so it is certainly a piece of history worth preserving.
You are all invited to a brief meeting on Thursday, May 7 at the Burrows House (545 SW 9th St., the only Queen Anne Victorian on the block) at 10:00 am. In addition to the planning of tasks, theywill be going over some of the SOLV safety points and registration forms. They will go over these again at the site on Saturday morning as well.
Anyone who is able to help with this event on Saturday are advised to wear sturdy footwear, bring work gloves and clippers or pruning shears if you have them.
If you have any questions, just give Loretta a call (265-7509). Again, they would appreciate any help you can give.
Thanks so much,
Barb
