HEADSTONE PRESERVATION PROJECT

Help preserve our heritage!

We are once again looking for locals who value historical preservation to help with the important task of cleaning and maintaining the headstones in our cemeteries. The Maple Ridge Cemetery and Whonnock Cemetery have graves dating back hundreds of years. Many of the people buried there are early settlers of our community and do not have anyone left to care for their resting place.

Join us to take part in this important, unique, and memorable project.

Pre-reservation is required and all ages are welcome! (youth under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult). This event is a great way to give back to our community, while enjoying the outdoors with your family!

Volunteers must provide their own cleaning supplies. A list will be sent out prior to the day.
