ROTC Volunteer Work Days

Jan 31, 2020

The cemetery is fortunate to have the Air Force Junior ROTC from Schenectady High School perform volunteer workdays. 

In October the students filled the potholes in the dirt road leading to the Green Burial area (The Dell) and planted 6 arborvitae trees along the Moyston Street fence. These trees replaced ones that had been cut down by vandals.

The ROTC did a second workday in November helping to rake up tons of fallen leaves and transport them to the Vale Urban Farm for composting.
