Prattville Dragoons SCV Camp 1524 Historic Robinson Springs Cemetery Maintenance

Four members of Camp 1524 worked early Saturday morning August 14th at Robinson Springs Cemetery in Millbrook AL to cut grass and trim around the gravestones there.  Color Sgt John Dennis had his electric mower cutting around the graves while compatriots Rob Schwarz and Larry Spears used their weedeaters to trim closely around the headstones to prepare the cemetery for a final cut using a riding mower planned by 1st Lt Harold Grooms.  Commander Waldo also attended the workday using a sling blade to cut some of the Bahia grass and also pruned back some undergrowth encroaching on some shrubs there. The Dragoons care for this historic cemetery, the final resting place of a number of Confederate and U.S. veterans and founders of the Robinson Springs/Millbrook community, as part of the SCV Guardian Program.
