Our Vision
Graves are permanent and land is eternal.
Let’s look to the future and not to the past.
Let’s open a door for continued traditional burials at a nearby beautiful site out on Jones Ferry.
Doing this will also open the door to preserving all of the Fidelity meadow and woods for a park and a nature preserve, thereby maintaining this space’s flexibility for future generations’ uses.
Our ‘Make Carrboro Parks’ Group
We are Carrboro people, mostly from the Fidelity & Davie neighborhood, who believe that our town council should adopt a long-term viewpoint regarding our precious remaining open green spaces: Preserving these open spaces and using some of them to create new parks in underserved areas of town should be of the highest priority for Carrboro.
