The Vinings Community River Line Cemetery Crew Leader, Knox Massey, invites all interested (over the age of 15) to assist with vegetation maintenance at the First St. Johns Cemetery within the new Pulte Homes Woodland Preserve Neighborhood in Vinings.

Volunteers are needed to cut weeds, privet, small trees, and remove English ivy. Appropriate attire includes gloves, long pants, sturdy shoes, socks and hat. Bring your water bottle.

Please RSVP to RiverLineGA@gmail.com, so we can plan and coordinate the work. Along with your RSVP, please indicate whether you can provide your own hand pruners and any other tools you would like to use or share. Useful tools are gas powered weed eaters, bow saws, lopping shears, and chain saws. Be sure to label tools with your name.

West Village Club House Near 2144 W Village Ln, Atlanta, GA 30339 (It’s a stand-alone building off W. Village Cross and an unnamed street.)

The River Line Historic Area nonprofit formed a Friends group and adopted Shoupade Park in September 2017 to raise its level of care and relevance to the community. The park is surrounded by the Park Avenue residential neighborhood and harbors significant Civil War Battlefield remains. http://riverline.org/parks/
