Cemetery and Camp Work Day

                  This month’s Cemetery Work Day was very productive and we had an amazing turn out, Thank you to all that came out. We raised a military marker that had sunken in too deep in the plot next to ours. We have an large old tree on the western end that needs to be removed and were able to chip a good chunk away. As usual we walked the grounds and the streets cleaning up the trash and doing our part for the community in the Keep Jacksonville Beautiful program. Thank you to Mr. Ruff and all the other people that come out there and do what they can for our plot. It truly Shines in the light.

                    After getting the bulk done at the cemetery we had a crew break off and head to the Warehouse.  We had some maintenance on the Van that needed to be done. The mast needed to be lubricated and oiled section by section and had to be held down so we could reach each section. Here wood was used too hold down lower sections so it could be oiled properly. Always learning something new with this project and is always amazing to see that mast go up. Thank you all that came out and helped with the Projects.
