Back in 1882 when this same land was incorporated by a group of Spiritualists, it was intended to be a Spiritual "summertime refresher/vacation" for those interested in Spiritualism. Admission to the grounds was charged and very large tents (including some with stove pipes) were rented to families and individuals so they could camp on the grounds. Mediums did readings out of their tents. Many nationally known lecturers scheduled speaking events here because of the size of the pavilion we once had. In addition many activities including classes, dances, ladies tea, were just right for the times. While camping is no longer available, the name has been around for 127 years now! |
| The Mississippi Valley Spiritualist Association is chartered by the National Spiritualist Association of Churches. |
