About this Event
The City of Sonoma is pleased to announce that the next Cemetery Volunteer Workday is scheduled for September 21st at Valley Cemetery. Cemetery Volunteer Workdays offer a chance for community members to contribute to the maintenance of our three beloved cemeteries: Mountain Cemetery, Valley Cemetery, and Veteran’s Cemetery.
These workdays are planned for the late summer and fall months, with each event customized to the unique needs of the three cemeteries. The tasks will range from rejuvenating the landscape and controlling weeds to landscaping projects, restoring borders, reinstating plots, and completing various essential maintenance tasks.
We understand that everyone's schedule may vary, and you don't have to commit to the entire four hours. Volunteers are welcome to join when they can and leave as needed.
Workday Activities: Our primary tasks will include raking pine needles and oak leaves from the site’s numerous large trees and tending to W**d and overgrowth. Hand tools will be provided, but volunteers are encouraged to bring their own if preferred. Please remember to label any personal tools with your name.
Recommended Attire: We recommend sturdy closed-toe shoes with socks, long pants, long-sleeved shirts, and gloves. Additionally, consider wearing protective eyewear, a hat, or sun protection.
Parking: We understand parking can be challenging during youth soccer season in the neighborhood. Therefore, we have designated Cemetery Volunteer parking inside the cemetery. Simply enter through the main entrance and follow the parking signs to the southwest section of the property.
More volunteer opportunities are just around the corner, offering a hands-on opportunity to play a vital role in conserving these sacred landscapes. Stay informed about volunteer opportunities by completing the Cemetery Volunteer form on the City’s website.
