Bald Knob Cross Rehab

After years of infighting over monetary and control issues, supporters of the Bald Knob Cross of Peace in Alto Pass, Illinois have finally settled their differences and a new board is planning a massive restoration for the ailing landmark. InFocus was there the day inspectors and board members gathered at the cross to assess the damage caused by years of neglect. Board president Steve McKeown has created a Facebook page to document the latest news of the restoration process and to offer visitors an opportunity to share their thoughts and suggestions.
