Cemetery Plot cleanup – National Historic Day

Advance Notice – Saturday, July 7 9:30-11:30  For Family Members and other Volunteers

The plots of people buried at the Bridge River Valley Cemetery need tending.  While we have someone who

Looks after the basic yard maintenance at the cemetery, the care of the actual plots is sensitive and time consuming.

The cleanup will include pulling weeds, removing old and decayed adornments (plastic flowers) and assessing the rock

Borders to see if they need to be relaid.  If you have a family member in this Cemetery or are a sensitive and caring volunteer

We could use your help on July 7.  Please email Jenny at bridgerivervalley@gmail.com.

Advance Notice – Logging Trucks on Lillooet Pioneer Rd. 40 Bralorne to Gold Bridge and then out Rd. 40
