IMPORTANT - CEMETERY COMMISSION MEETING
ACCESS DISCUSSION FOR THE DICKSON CHAPEL
Tomorrow Night via Zoom. See details below.
The access will most likely go through conservatory garden from the side, but not sure. The picture below shows the conservatory garden and side doors that would allow access. Again please join the meeting to get details.
There will also be a Friends of Greenlawn (in person meeting), a Historic Commission and Disability Commission meetings via zoom to share the access options with the community. The dates will be shared asap. Thank you for your support.
FYI - The Friends is hopeful the conservatory will be restored/replaced with less fragile type of conservatory than before.
