Cemetery fundraising begins

The New Prospect Cemetery Association has kicked off its first-ever fundraising campaign to improve the New Prospect Cemetery in the Town of Shawangunk.

These improvements include but are not limited to paving roads (beginning with the older section of the cemetery first), tree cutting and bush trimming.

“We’re trying to raise funds to take proper care of the cemetery for all of our loved ones that are here,” said New Prospect Cemetery Association Trustee Mary Grass.

The group hopes to raise $40,000. They’ve raised $10,000 as of Thursday.

Those interested in helping the cemetery improvement project can send donations to New Prospect Cemetery Association, P.O. Box 902, Pine Bush, NY 12566.
