Remember Georgia Gives Day-tomorrow, December 6, 2012!

 

What are you getting when you give to Riverside Cemetery?

 

*a repository of heritage which brings history to life through the annual presentation of Spirits in October, which was attended by a record 884 people in 2012

 

*an oasis of beautifully landscaped green space in the heart of Macon's historic neighborhoods, only blocks away from downtown shops,  

offices, restaurants and  museums

 

*an initiative to  produce a master plan for the cemetery's next 125 years which will invite stakeholders-businesses along Riverside Drive, non-profit partners and local residents-to envision a comprehensive plan to enhance not only the cemetery but also adjacent neighborhoods along Riverside Drive  and across the Ocmulgee River
