NCPTT and the University of West Florida will host the Southeast Cemetery Monument Conservation Workshop on October 23-25 at St. Michaels Cemetery in Pensacola, Fla.

Jason Church and Bianca Garcia conducted a Cemetery Monument Conservation Basics workshop at City Cemetery No. 1, San Antonio, Texas on June 16, 2007.

Topics covered in the workshop include grave marker cleaning, basic resetting, materials identification, and ethical issues.

Here are nine tips for cemetery preservation that I have learned.

NCPTT will make excerpts from its Jan. 30 Tel-Net course “Essentials in Cemetery Monument Care,” available online.

NCPTT produced two five-minute video clips on proper techniques for cleaning and resetting cemetery headstones as companion pieces to its recent TELNPS course, “Essentials in Cemetery Monument Care.”

NCPTT will broadcast its first telnet course, “Essentials in Cemetery Monument Care,” on Jan. 30, 2007 from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. EST.

NCPTT recently provided a daylong consultation with David Patterson and Brett Smith of Sipapu Cemetery Services.
