For these burial rules, policies, and hours, see the updated Cemetery Ordinance Amendment.

VETERANS MEMORIAL

Every year, Powell Township, in coordination with the Cemetery Sextant, places flowers and flags for the Veterans in the town cemetery. On Memorial Day, the local Veterans Chapter reads the full Veterans Honor Roll. Powell Township strives to respect all Veterans, living and deceased.

Donations from the public and a great benefactor enabled Big Bay Cemetery’s Veterans Memorial headstone purchase and installation in 2018.
