Waukesha Prairie Home Cemetery Fence

More than 40 Carroll University students volunteered to paint the deteriorating vintage 1920s iron fence at Waukesha’s Prairie Home Cemetery.

Terry Welch of Prime Coatings of Pewaukee is being credited with supplying the project with an affordable green paint that sealed the unsafe existing lead paint.

Jody Kluge, United Way Volunteer Center director, is being credited with gathering the forces from Carroll.

Cemetery Director David Brenner said 2,600 linear feet of fence along Prairie and West avenues were painted.
