Seasonal Clean-Up

McDivitt Grove Cemetery is cleaned at least three times a year: Spring (before mowing season), after Memorial Day, and Fall (end of mowing season). Additional clean up is done on an as-needed basis are notices are posted on our website. Individuals are encouraged to remove anything they wish to keep before the cleanups begin.

SEASONAL CLEAN-UP ALERT:

There will be a seasonal clean-up the week of October 21, 2019. Thank you!
