June 9th, 2018. 0800 – 1200, and 1230 - 1630 We will be leading the effort this year for operation clean sweep. Every year, after the Memorial day holiday and passed, there have been groups of veterans and non-veterans that have participated in helping the Fort Snelling Cemetery’s grounds crews clean up from the holiday so they can continue their work in keeping the cemetery clean and well maintained. The Mission Continues Twin Cities Platoons have been handed this event to lead this year. We are looking for people to sign up for either the AM (0800-1200) or the PM shift (1230-1630) or both. We will have both VSO’s and other corporate groups out for his large event. We will be looking for volunteers to help with the clean sweep along with support personnel for areas like check in, supply runners, area captains and set up and tear down. Please consider this event – bring the family out. It’s a great way to see and teach the next generation as to why a place like this is so important.
