The Between the Rivers Cemetery and Heritage Perpetual fund will be a fund under the direction of the 5-member committee which will consist of a representative from each county within the Land Between the Lakes.

The representatives will serve a term of 3 years that will start in a staggered rotation and will be appointed by the County Judge Executives of Trigg and Lyon Counties and the County Mayor of Stewart County. The remaining two ex-officio members will be from the Forest Service Heritage Department and the Friends of Land Between the Lakes.

The funds will be used by the 3 voting members with guidance from their communities to address current needs as it relates to cemeteries.
