Saturday Clean Up

Dear One Hour at a Time,

Hi, I’m Christine Maney, a member of the City-Owned Cemetery Advisory Committee.

There is a clean-up of historic Cove Hill (Lane’s Cove) Cemetery this coming Saturday, the 29th starting at 10am.

Val Gilman suggested I contact you to ask if you’d help us gather Saturday volunteers by posting the below flyer on your social media outlets.

I thank you in advance as we all work together to keep Gloucester clean and special.

Best Regards,

Christine

Cove Hill (Lane’s Cove) Cemetery Clean-up -> Saturday, September 29, 2018 at 10am

There is a small privately-owned plot for parking near the cemetery, but once this is full, cars will have to be parked on Washington Street (no meters).

There is no bathroom facilities nor electricity.

There is a very nice coffee shop, The Cove Café, a 2-min walk from the cemetery, though no public bathrooms.

  Please bring work/gardening gloves, bug spray, and wear long pants and if you can, any of the following yard tools:

a rake, a gas or battery-operated weed whacker, loppers

weeding buckets, large black heavy-duty plastic bags for leaves and weeds

old tarps for collecting and moving debris to a central location

lawn mower

wheel barrow

  1. Great follow-up here Donna…Small town historic cemetery behind the Harvey’s oil and coal company and so right above high point view of Cove Café two doors down from Lanesville post office same side of street. From this hill behind cemetery can view lanes cove too work on south break wall repair lot’s of tree’s and dog wood if I recall back there toward cove as well.

    Guess the land back where the Harvey Oil and Coal Company was located in this area the 1950’s and 1960’s is called Harvey Reservation now, wonder if company closed or relocated been a long time? If I were there love to clean-up my old neighborhood as a youth. Dave 🙂
