The following are some cemetery etiquette guidelines that Bellefontaine Cemetery wants everyone to be aware of and follow.
. This is an active cemetery; avoid disturbing a gravesite or chapel service and family members that are visiting their loved ones.
. Children under 16 years of age must be accompanied by an adult.
. Pets are welcomed but must be on a leash.
. Firearms are prohibited with the exception of the Military Honor Guard and re-enactors.
. Visitors and lot owners are requested to leave comments and inquiries at the cemetery office.
. Soliciting within the cemetery is prohibited.
. Groups of 10 or more must register at the cemetery office before proceeding onto the grounds.
. Keep conversation volumes low. Be respectful. Other people in the cemetery may be upset and want a tranquil place in which to mourn and to be alone in peace.
. Keep contact to gravestones to a minimum. Do not sit on any monuments. They are meaningful to the families who placed them there. Rubbings are prohibited.
. Do not take photographs of other people or funeral activities in the cemetery. Restrict your photography to scenes of landscape, nature, and architectural elements.
. Use common sense when walking off of the roadways. Walk between the headstones and do not stand on a burial place.
. The cemetery hours are 8am to 4pm everyday. If you do not leave the cemetery by 4pm, the gates will be locked and you will have to call the security number on the gate and have them let you out. Please do not let this happen.
