Sons of Confederate Veterans Camp 1524 conducted another workday at the Robinson Springs cemetery on Hwy 14 in Millbrook AL on Saturday August 19th. Workers included Commander Stuart Waldo, Quartermaster Bill
Myrick, Mike Stanley, James Spears, Bill Gill, Carl French from the Cradle of
Confederacy camp in Montgomery, 1st Lt Harold Grooms and compatriot Jerry Clay
Lyle. The grass had not been mowed in the past month so spots were tall and tough to mow thru but, Jerry Lyle brought his “Dixie Chopper" adorned with
flags and stickers which made short work of it along with Carl French's big fast Turf Tiger. Carl, after making
some repairs to his machine on Friday, was able to coax some work from his zero
turn mower. The cemetery looks better than at any time this year thanks to all the hard work from those who participated as part of the Alabama Division cemtery guardian program. Also, on Tuesday August 22nd, Bill Myrick cleaned the Doster
family cemetery. There are at least 2 Confederate veterans buried there
and a War of 1812 veteran.
