Cemetery clean-up
Volunteers from the Friends of Kilcoy Cemetery held a clean-up session on April 21, cleaning the oldest section of the cemetery.
Kids laid poppies after clean up.
The ‘working bees’ volunteers, consisting of 22 adults and two children, gathered their tools and got to work.
These graves were extremely old, requiring a delicate hand as they worked to make the area shine.
While some graves only needed some sweeping, others required a lot more effort, with some being hidden under a thick layer of gum nuts and branches.
The volunteers’ work made a huge diff erence, and they were pleased with the results.
The two children went around placing poppies on graves of fallen servicemen/ women, once the clean-up was done.
