Contact the Auditor of the county.? Get the names, addresses, phone numbers of the board
members and contact them.? Ask them if any money for the 2008 budget has been appropriated
for cemetery restoration and if not, ask why.? In January, look at end of year expenses
for that trustee and see where her money is going.? If that does not work, do a letter to
the editor to the county newspaper (near the trustee) and explain why the trustee will not
respond or help.? A picture of the cemetery and an article in the newspaper might get a
response from the local community to pressure the trustee or a local group might form to
plan cemetery work days.? Also, ask for $$ donations.
Regards,
Linda

Mark, Kathy, UC Library,
I am really at a loss here. There seems to be no interest in restoring the
New Hope Cemetery.
-- Joan Kuhlenbeck (Harmony Township Trustee) said she would help to fix
this cemetery and no word from her after several, several attempts
-- Left multiple messages for Scoutmaster Brian Anderson and no word
Please let me know what your thoughts are as you are the only people that
have expressed interest in restoring the New Hope Cemetery.
Thanks
-Jim
