Positive Feedback Continues

We have received several positive comments about the Discover Hartford Bicycle Tour, which took place on Saturday, September 8th. Several Cedar Hill Cemetery Foundation supporters, including at least one of our Board members, participated in the tour and have commented on how wonderful the tour was and how glad they were that Cedar Hill Cemetery, one of Hartford's hidden treasures, could be a part of it.

As we mentioned in our September 10th posting, Cedar Hill Cemetery was mentioned in a Hartford Courant article about the Bicycle Tour when a participant was quoted as saying, "'I've lived in Hartford my whole life - 27 years - but there were things I saw that I never knew were here,' . . . adding that she was especially impressed with the area around Cedar Hill Cemetery."

The positive comments from this event continue to come to us. This morning, the Foundation received an email from one of the organizers of the event. He was writing to inform us that the Discover Hartford Bicycle Tour had a post-tour de-briefing meeting during which time they watched video from the day of the event. In the video were short interviews with participants and one man who was interviewed said, "The route was great - and I now know I'm going to be buried in Cedar Hill Cemetery."

We are very proud of Cedar Hill Cemetery as a historic landmark, nature preserve, expansive arboretum, educational venue, and memorial park. It's easy to fall in love with what Cedar Hill has to offer. Whether you are looking for a final resting place or a peaceful place to walk, we welcome you to come visit us and see for yourself what makes Cedar Hill one of Hartford's hidden treasures.
