Clarksville Montgomery County African-American Legacies 
Interested in a couple of things:
1.) Being a part of the initiative going forward. I am proud of the work done and want to help in the future efforts.
2.) Asking permission to add a link for the legacy trail and the signature image to a site I help manage promoting cultural -awareness.

Hi, Pam, We would love for you to be a part of it and for you to add links and images to a site that you manage. Your comment just showed up today, and I’m not sure why it wasn’t available for us to see before now. We hope that the delay will not disrupt your goals. The trail is managed through Mt. Olive Cemetery Historical Preservation Society. Becoming a member of Mt. Olive would be great in helping to get involved with the trail and more. The Society meets once a month at the public library. Here’s the website about membership: https://mtolivechps.weebly.com/
We hope to see you at a meeting.
