Commission outlines fall plan for Avon Center Cemetery cleanup
Summary
Vice‑Chair Ralph White said cemetery cleaning has been delayed until cooler weather, the City bought cleaning supplies, and he plans to involve a local teacher and students this fall; re‑engaging a Boy Scout troop was discussed but deemed more difficult.
Ralph White told the commission that restoration and cleaning work at Avon Center Cemetery has been delayed pending cooler weather and that the City has purchased new cleaning supplies for the effort. He said he intends to contact a local school teacher who had previously offered to involve students and hopes to schedule the cleanup for the fall; a prior attempt was prevented by bad weather.
White also noted the Commission considered re‑engaging a Boy Scout troop that assisted in a prior year but said coordinating that group required considerable effort, making school outreach the preferred approach. No firm dates were set at the July 8 meeting.
