Cemetery Volunteer Days
This past October we began a monthly Volunteer Day scheduled for the first Sunday of the month, beginning at 1:00pm within a different cemetery location (TBA) each month.
April Opportunity:
Join us Sunday, April 7th, 1:00pm
Immaculate Conception Cemetery
29 Delatour Rd. Watervliet, NY 12189
These volunteer days are completely voluntary for employees, family, friends, businesses, and community. We hope to get together to tackle light general cleanup and beautification projects while enjoying getting to know staff, families and folks within the community! We have tasks for individuals and groups of nearly all ages and abilities including raking leaves, weeding, picking up sticks and branches, washing windows (if applicable), raise and level markers and so much more.
Bring your own tools, talents and abilities and lend a helping hand!
No rain date as these are planned as monthly events. Please check back on our blog page as we will post any cancelations ASAP if necessary.
If interested in participating for a few hours at one of our volunteer days, please contact us at [email protected], or call (518) 730-0302. Reservations are appreciated, but not necessary.
