2024 Fall Pinehurst and San Sebastian Cemeteries Cleanup

Cemetery cleanup st. Augustine


Come join us at the 2024 Fall Pinehurst and San Sebastian Cemeteries Cleanup on Saturday,  October 19th, from 8 am - 12 noon.


There'll be a special headstone reveal ceremony to thank everyone who helped donate to save the lost graves.

We will honor those who came before us by cleaning up around the individual graves and cleaning headstones in two of the oldest African American cemeteries in Florida.
