Fall Colors at the Cross
October 16, 2021, 10:00 am – 5:00 pm

Join us for our Fall Fundraiser – Fall Colors at the Cross. Donations will be accepted at the gate.

Bald Knob Mountain offers one of the premier views for Fall Colors in the entire Midwest all at the site of one of the world’s largest crosses.

Food Trucks and Local Vendors will be on-site for the duration of the event. Photo Ops will be available throughout the grounds. Event T-Shirts will be available.

Due to the continued COVID precautions for our region and our desire to do our part, activities at this year’s event will be limited. We do hope to bring back our petting zoo, carriage rides, and other activities in the future.
