Compatriots of Sons of Confederate Veterans Camp 1524 mowed and cleaned the Robinson Springs cemetery on Friday September 11th, an appropriate observance on the anniversary of that solemn day. Quartermaster Bill Myrick, Communications Officer Doug Butler and new member Rob Schwartz mowed and trimmed around the grave sites and fence line to bring the grounds to a nice appearance befitting the final resting place of the many US and Confederate veterans and area founders there. Compatriot Connor Lee mowed the larger areas on Tuesday early in the week using his zero turn mower. It had been some time since it had rained so the grass was dry and wispy and required running over it multiple times to get it cut cleanly. The US and Confederate Battle flags were still in good condition and were seen waving over the grave sites across the cemetery after the work there. The Dragoons maintain Robinson Springs cemetery as part of the SCV Guardian Program.
