Replace "Birthplace of the "Old Rugged Cross" sign

Donation protected
In December 2020, the Birthplace of the "Old Rugged Cross" historical marker was damaged in an auto-accident. As a hit-and-run incident, no insurance has been identified to replace the sign, so a group of community members are interested in getting it done. The land where the sign stood is Albion College property and they have agreed to in-kind their facilities staff to install a new sign. Your donations will be collected by the Historical Society until enough money is collected to purchase a new sign and post.

You can read more about the sign in a recent article from Frank Passic: https://albionmich.net/old-rugged-cross-marker-destroyed/
