Bayside Cemetery holds generations of community members going back to the 1850s. Your donation helps preserve a sacred piece of Sturgeon Bay’s history.

Preserve Local History

Donations directly support the work that keeps Bayside Cemetery a place of dignity and remembrance:

• Maintaining historic gravestones, monuments, and landscape features
• Lawn care, tree trimming, and seasonal cleanup & beautification projects
• Maintaining building structures (chapel, sheds, signage)
• Recording and protecting generational information
• Preserving a physical connection to Sturgeon Bay’s past

Well-kept grounds are essential to respect, dignity, and community pride.

Ensure Long-Term Sustainability

Bayside Cemetery operates on a limited budget as a not-for-profit organization. Donations cover the costs that plot fees alone cannot, allowing us to plan responsibly for future needs.

Bayside Cemetery is managed by a nonprofit association, and your donation is tax-deductible. Your support shows respect for those buried here, honors their families, and adds to the dignity of the entire cemetery space.

When you give, you invest in Sturgeon Bay’s cultural fabric. Bayside Cemetery reflects the lives and stories of Door County pioneers, veterans, business owners, farmers, fishermen, and families who built this region. Their contributions shaped our community, and their resting place deserves to be protected with the same respect.

How Your Gift Makes a Difference

We invite you to make a tax-deductible donation in any amount. Every gift matters.

With your help, we can preserve Bayside Cemetery not only as a burial ground, but as a living historical landmark that continues to serve Sturgeon Bay with honor and beauty.

Thank You

Your support ensures that Bayside Cemetery remains a place of dignity, comfort, and pride for generations to come. On behalf of the families we serve and the community we honor, thank you for helping preserve this important part of Sturgeon Bay’s heritage.
