Adopt-A-Plot

---

Our  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
