Cemetery
2026 Cemetery Clean‑Up Day, April 11th, was a success!
A dedicated group of volunteers spent Saturday cleaning and restoring burial lots in the New Cemetery. This work helps keep our grounds safe, respectful, and well‑maintained, and follows the standards outlined in the Township’s 2018 Cemetery Ordinance. Notices about these clean‑ups were shared on the Township website in October 2025 and April 2026.
During the clean‑up, volunteers removed décor, rusted metal items, and plants or containers that showed signs of decay, deterioration, or damage, or that had become unsightly, created litter, or interfered with mowing and maintenance. Items such as shepherds’ hooks, flag poles, and similar decorations (excluding Veterans’ flags and official markers placed by the Township) were also removed when necessary.
Any items that were removed but remain in good condition are available for pickup at the New Cemetery in the southwest corner near the white fence.
As we continue caring for both the Old and New Cemeteries, we kindly ask families to help with seasonal clean‑up each year during April and October. Your participation makes a meaningful difference in keeping our cemeteries beautiful and respectful for all who visit.
Thanks to all who helped!
