Woodlawn Cemetery Guidelines for Gravesite Memorials

As the weather warms, cemetery staff will begin spring cleanup of the cemetery grounds. The City of Saskatoon reminds visitors to the Woodlawn Cemetery of the guidelines in place for gravesite memorials. These guidelines are intended to maintain a pleasant environment and respect the final resting place of loved ones:

• Only approved monuments or memorials are considered permanent items and are permitted to remain in the cemetery year-round. All other items placed on a gravesite, flowerbed, monument, or concrete foundation are considered temporary and will be removed periodically.

• Flowers and other items are permitted on the gravesite the day of the burial and will be left for a period of seven calendar days. After this time, items will be removed by the City. Please note, the City does not take responsibility for any removed, damaged, or missing items placed in the cemetery by the public. 

Cemetery visiting hours are 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. daily. The Cemetery Office is open from 8:00 a.m. to 4:20 p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding statutory holidays. For all inquiries, contact the Cemetery Office at 306-975-3308 or cemetery@saskatoon.ca.
