Welcome to the Historic Prospect Hill Cemetery and Arboretum
Omaha's Pioneer Cemetery, founded in 1858, is one of Nebraska's oldest cemeteries, a Nebraska State Historical Site, and a Nebraska Statewide Arboretum Site
|
Due to the rain, we have made the decision to cancel today's Memorial Day activities. This was not a decision made lightly, but made in the best interest of Prospect Hill Cemetery. The Board expresses our appreciation to Boy Scout Troop 88, the First Nebraska Volunteers, the Prospect Hill Preservation Brass Band, Jim Fogarty and our speaker, Ryan Roenfeld. Please mark your calendars for next year. Thank you!

Adopt-A-PlotOur Adopt-A-Plot program is a perfect service opportunity to help the cemetery keep up on maintenance and keep the cemetery looking great. We are looking for volunteers or groups to adopt certain sections of the cemetery to visit every two to three weeks and maintain from May through August. Specific information can be found under "Contact" on the Adopt-A-Plot page. On that is a map that highlights the different sections of the cemetery that are up for adoption. If you have read through everything and would love to help contact either Dave Harding, as listed in the document, or the Prospect Hill Contact email at: info@prospecthill-omaha.org
