Happy New Year

The arrival of 2009 brings another year of Cedar Hill Cemetery Foundation working toward its mission. As a result, we have already begun to schedule our 2009 tours and events. This year's tours and events season will begin with the 3rd Annual Run for the Roses. Held at The Hartford Golf Club, this event raises unrestricted funds to support Cedar Hill Cemetery Foundation's many projects, including restoring the historic memorial artworks and offering educational tours and events to the community. This year's Run for the Roses will include viewing the 135th running of the Kentucky Derby live from Churchill Downs, hors-d'oeuvres, cocktails, dinner, a silent auction and live music. Joe D'Ambrosio, WTIC radio personlaity and voice of the UConn Huskies, will be returning as emcee and will be joined this year by WFSB Channel 3 news anchor Irene O'Connor.

The 3rd Annual Run for the Roses will launch Cedar Hill Cemetery Foundation's tours and events season, which will include the Cedar Hill: Behind the Scenes tour, a Mystery Scavenger Hunt, Communicating with Connecticut's Ghosts, and our annually anticipated Notable Tree Tour with Ed Richardson. For additional information about Cedar Hill Cemetery Foundation's 2009 tours and events season, please view the information bar to the right or visit www.cedarhillcemetery.org.

Happy new year to all, and we look forward to seeing you this year!
