Directions to Cemetery

We will be at the New Willimantic Cemetery on West Main Street, Willimantic.  This cemetery is located across the street from Ocean State Job Lot, near the highway bypass.  As you enter the cemetery you will see cars near the back.  Please park on the roadway behind the last vehicle and walk to the flagpole where we will be located for the ceremony.  Do not park on the grass.  If you have any questions you can call us at 860-423-6389 or email us at info@WindhamChamber.com.

Parking Instructions

Please do not drive or park on the grass.  We try to be respectful of the grounds keepers.  You will park behind the next car in line.  We all finish at the same time so you will not have to wait long at the end to move your vehicle.  You can park on any roadway.
