Members and friends of the Prattville Dragoons met on Saturday morning May 7th to mow the grass and weed trim and do some hedge clipping at the historic Robinson Springs cemetery in Millbrook AL. It was a beautiful brisk morning with low humidity making the work much more comfortable. Camp Commander Waldo, 1st Lt Rob Schwartz, compatriots Larry Spears and Thomas Griffith participated. But a wonderful addition was compatriot Hubert Champion, a friend of Rob's and prospective camp member who brought his trailer with a zero turn mower, push mower, weed trimmer and blower to help with the effort. The work was completed in short order and made the grounds beautiful for Mother's Day the following day. The maintenance of this historic cemetery, the final resting place for many area settlers and Robinson Springs community founders as well as US and Confederate armed forces veterans, is part of the Dragoons Sons of Confederate Veterans Guardian program to care for these historic cemeteries.
