During sharons summer arts and crafts fair, we sponsored a self-guided tour of The cemetery. Volunteers cleaned about 100 more stones. Stone repair also continued with fallen and broken headstones picked up, reset, and put back together. A video was shot of a volunteer cleaning a stone which was then posted on The Sharon historical societys home page, along with a map of The Burying Ground.
