Let’s honor Juneteenth as a community by cleaning the Frederick Douglass Memorial and Penny Hill Cemeteries on June 19 from 9-11 a.m. This family friendly event will honor those who endured the many years of slavery while celebrating the freedom they fought for. We will meet at Frederick Douglass Memorial Cemetery (1367-1473, Wilkes St) and walk to Penny Hill Cemetery. Come as you are or wear red, black and/or green to represent the Pan African Flag. RPCA will provide grabber tools and trash bags for the clean-up.
