| Join us Tuesday to hear from Jeannie Regan-Dinius the Director of Historic Preservation at the Crown Hill Foundation. In this role, she oversees the Foundation’s preservation efforts, which include inventorying and determining preservation needs for the cemetery’s historic structures, historic family mausoleums, monuments and statues, and tombstones. She is an integral part of the Foundation’s efforts to preserve the architectural, cultural, and natural heritage of Crown Hill Cemetery. Jeannie received her B.A. in public history from Ball State University and a Master of Library Science-Information Management and Urban Planning from Indiana University-Purdue University, Indianapolis. Her first job out of graduate school was in Huntington, Indiana as the executive director at a 96-acre historic park with five historic buildings. From there, she went to work for the State of Indiana’s Department of Natural Resources – Division of Historic preservation and Archaeology (DNR-DHPA) as the Cemetery and Burial Ground Registry Coordinator. In that role, she not only surveyed cemeteries throughout the state but also worked to advocate for the historic resources, taught about preservation of the sites and offered programs on cemeteries in the state. After 21 years at the DNR-DHPA, Jeannie accepted the role at Crown Hill Cemetery. All are welcome at Rotary programs.
