As the sun sets on a cool autumn day, enjoy an exclusive opportunity to walk through one of St. Charles' oldest cemeteries after dark. Explore the cemetery's dark corners, closely inspect the headstones to see what you might learn, and take a moment to step across the graves - if you dare.
Learn about the history of St. Charles graveyards, and hear the stories of the individuals who found their final resting place in St. Charles. At each gravesite, guests will "encounter" a community figure and listen as they tell in short monologues about their lives, their joys, their sorrows and their loves.
Program in cooperation with the St. Charles History Museum. Parking available in the lower parking lot at Bethlehem Church, 1145 N. 5th Ave. Ages 15 and younger must be accompanied by a paying adult. Flashlights and sturdy shoes recommended for walking on uneven ground.
