Candlelight Cemetery Tours

After the sun goes down, pick up your lantern and head over to the Big Shoal Cemetery as we learn about Clay County's past. This guided candlelight tour explores the history of the 195-plus-year-old Big Shoal Cemetery and gives visitors the chance to meet the people buried there including Clay County's earliest settlers, veterans, and colorful characters. This event is not spooky but just plain fun. Tickets are $15. This is an outdoor walking tour so please wear comfortable shoes and bring a jacket.

Registration is required and open from September 8 - October 12 Gladstone Community Center at (816)423-4200, or online.
