Thought I'd take a second to report that things are still happening at McClintick/Sylvester Cemetery in Clark Co., Indiana. Spent Saturday afternoon with a young man named Steve Overton from Sellersburg. He is an Eagle Scout candidate and is going to coordinate and manage the restoration of this long-neglected site. Steve's goal is to be finished by the end of August. Talked yesterday with Dale Popp, the Jeffersonville Township Trustee, who reported that he is making arrangements to get the stumps from all the trees cut down on 5/10/98 ground out. Mr. Popp also wants to install a split-rail fence around the property when we get finished. We have two crews of teenage volunteers from the National Acteens Convention coming to McClintick/Sylvester Cemetery on Friday morning, July 3rd, to help us with clearing the grounds, which will make continued probing efforts possible. Once the site has been thoroughly probed, then we can begin the job of repairing all the broken stones. The Township Trustee is going to have a dumpster at the site that weekend to facilitate removal of the mountain of debris. Right now, all I've got to do is find enough rakes to keep them all busy!
