Old Nordegg Cemetery  Scheduled Specialized Maintenance

This may include shoring up headstones, removing broken grave covers, replacing deteriorating fences etc. The goal is to make sure the cemetery is safe and well-kept for everyone to visit. The work will be respectfully handled by a skilled professional, experienced in cemetery rehabilitation.

The planned maintenance will start on August 21, 2023. The completion date is weather dependent, and is expected to continue into September.
