Their website (link here) states, "Do your part for history. Help preserve your local cemetery."
How do you participate in this Global Cemetery Meetup?
1. Sign in to your Find A Grave account (or sign up to become a member).
2. Review a list of local cemeteries for your county, and look for those that need photos or have photo requests outstanding.
3. Visit their Meetup Site (link here), choose a cemetery to visit on October 18th, and spread the news about this special event.
4. Grab a friend and a camera and go!
Be sure to use the hashtag #FGDay to post your pictures and videos to Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter!
Sounds like fun, doesn't it?
Today I am looking at my local cemeteries and am making a list of those I will be visiting. I will grab my camera and head out!
