    3. This message is to let listers know about a tombstone restoration workshop that will be held on Saturday, May 22nd, from 9-3, at Mt Olivet Cemetery south of the village of Catlin in Florida Twp, Parke Co IN. Helen Wildermuth of Stonehugger Cemetery Restoration and Mark Davis of Stonesaver Cemetery Restoration will be instructors for the on-site workshop. No registration, just come to learn current best practice repair techniques. Directional signs will start on the southwest corner of the square in Rockville. Mt Olivet is located on the Rockville-Rosedale Road (Market Street). It is not hard to find, just keep going down the road through Catlin. The workshop is part of an on-going restoration at Mt Olivet Cemetery, where 30 tombstones will be repaired during the last two weeks in May. The Parke County Community Foundation provided the majority of the funding for this project as a grant to reward volunteer efforts in the county. Participants to this free workshop should bring sack lunches and drinks. Bug spray and sun screen is advised. Questions? Sharon Mills, Secretary Mt Olivet Cemetery Association
