Members and a friend of the Prattville Dragoons on August, Monday 29th and Tuesday 30th mowed, trimmed and cleaned off all the graves at the historic Robinson Springs cemetery in Millbrook AL. It is the final resting place for many area settlers and community founders as well as Confederate veterans and some US veterans. A larger and improved SCV Guardian sign was also installed that camp 1st Lt Rob Schwarz's wife Donna made. Hubert Champion, a friend of Rob's and prospective camp member, brought his big Zero turn mower again which made quick work of the lawn expanse. Brig Cdmr Harold Grooms joined in using his regular riding mower too. Also working was 1st Lieutenant Commander Schwartz, Color Sergeant John Dennis, Quartermaster Bill Myrick,and, compatriot Larry Spears using assorted push mowers and weed eaters and leaf blowers. It was great to have everyone pitch in and make quick work of it and leave the place looking so good. This is part of our Guardian program services that we, the Sons of Confederate veterans do as a service to our community. A big thank you and a rebel yell goes out to all who gave of their time and effort to accomplish this important work.
