The Chief Leschi Cemetery hours of operation are from 8:00am-3:00pm. We have a sign-in sheet for any who come into the warehouse.
The Back gate will remain open from: Dawn (7:00am) to Dusk. If the bins are full feel no pressure with just leaving the compost and trash in a pile by the path, it will all be taken care of as soon as possible.
*Reminder you MUST give us permission to clean your family grave(s). We follow traditional rules and are uncomfortable doing any excessive cleaning on the grave, but we’ll continuously clean around them.
Depending on what you need:
- To flatten or add more to a grave, have a tree removed, or any Q&A’s about caskets or urns to contact our Supervisor Derwin.
- For the bathrooms, or to borrow tools after hrs. (ie. Shovels, rakes, wheelbarrow)
Caretaker Feather or Cemetery Worker Robert will provide assistance.
