Hello All,
President Sally Ware has cancelled all workdays at the Dixon until further notice due to the coronavirus. This is in compliance with the Governor’s order, and of course, none of us wants to jeopardize anyone’s safety.
FYI, Sally has learned from Michael Pulice, our representative at the VA Dept. of Historical Resources, that the meeting planned for March 19th was cancelled without a new date being set. We’ll just have to wait this out, like everything else. Nothing has changed as far as our position. We are still in line to get the “go forward” when the board meets.
Also, Sally reports that Brandon Bradley, our tree man has put tree work on hold until a later time. This is understandable, and he will let us know when he is ready to start work again. We would sign a contract at that time for the professional work we need to remove large trees near the fences.
Meanwhile, we thank Sally and others who steadily contribute to preserving the Historical Dixon Cemetery. In the photo below, you see the recent grading that Greg Evans has done toward a driveway and a smooth, easy-to-mow, parking area.
Good health and safety to all,
Will Cardwell
Nicely graded approach to Dixon Historical Cemetery. Awaits seeding and gravel driveway.
