NOTE: THIS EVENT WAS POSTPONED FROM SEP. 25 TO OCT. 2 DUE TO WEATHER!

Want to do a favor for historic preservation and learn a new skill at the same time? Come to the Old Colony Burying Ground in Granville (South Main Street) on Saturday, October 2nd, and learn how to clean a historic headstone!

No experience necessary ... we will teach you and provide supplies. Instructions start at 9:00 a.m. at the flagpole. Volunteer for an hour or two and make a difference in this beautiful old graveyard -- all before the OSU game! Thanks!

WHEN: Saturday, Oct. 2, beginning at 9:00
WHERE: Meet at the flagpole in the Old Colony Burying Ground, 300 S Main St, Granville, OH 43023

Given a poor weather prediction for Saturday, Sept. 25, the headstone cleaning session has been postponed to next Saturday, October 2nd, at 9:00 a.m. We hope all the volunteers can attend next weekend -- cross your fingers for great weather!
