NILES – The Original Old Rugged Cross Church will be open for a free public "walk through" on Sunday, Sept. 28.
"The Old Rugged Cross Foundation (ORCF) is delighted to invite the public to attend this special open house," said Bob Shaffer, ORCF president. "We conducted our Sept. 14 Old Rugged Cross Anniversary Celebration in the building, and now want to offer this additional, informal opportunity for the public to visit. The open house will be from 2:30 until 4:30 p.m.
No formal program is planned. Light refreshments will be served.
Old Rugged Cross gift items, including the new 2009 wall calendar, will be available during the open house.
The Old Rugged Cross Historic Site is in Pokagon, one block south of Pokagon Highway, just east of Highway M-51. The site includes the half-acre Old Rugged Cross Memorial Garden, which also will be open during the Open House.
