<p class="MsoNormal">Becky Soules will present an overview of recent work at the Marshfield Pioneer Cemetery and discuss some of the challenges in creating engaging interpretative materials for the site. Established in 1888, the cemetery encompasses four acres
of greenspace near downtown Coos Bay and has more than 2000 gravesites. However, it has suffered from extensive neglect and vandalism for much of its history. In recent years, grants from OCHC and Travel Oregon have funded a new interpretative display at the
cemetery’s main entrance. Becky will share some of the strategies that she used in designing the new signage -- endeavoring to provide an overview of the cemetery's history while also telling the stories of some of the diverse individuals buried in the cemetery.<o:p></o:p></p>
