Dragoons Robinson Springs Cemetery Grounds Maintenance for June 2019

A number of compatriots from SCV Camp 1524 helped mow and trim and cleanup the Robinson Springs Cemetery in Millbrook AL on Saturday morning June 15th.  Bob brought his riding lawn mower and was instrumental in quickly mowing down the grass.  Quartermaster Bill Myrick mowed closer around the graves with his push mower.  Adjutant Wayne Sutherland and compatriots Larry Spears and Tyrone Crowley used weed eaters and leaf blowers to do finish grounds maintenance.  Camp Commander Stuart Waldo was prepared to mow some before his mower drawcord broke and so he resorted to using a swingblade along the tree line and removing branches from the lawn.  Beir Butler also attended but similarly had mechanical problems with his weed eater and was unable to get it cranked up.  Nonetheless, the Dragoons of Camp 1524 completed the grounds maintenance at this historic cemetery in just over an hour before the heat of the day to restore the grounds for the final resting place of many of Elmore County's founding families and historic figures.
