Main Access Road to the Cross at the Crossroads Already Resurfaced and Open

The main access road to the Cross at the Crossroads, which had been closed temporarily Friday to make emergency repairs, has been reopened.

In a release Friday afternoon, The Cross Foundation Board said they "were notified this (Friday) morning that due to substantial deterioration of the Pike Avenue road surface", the Street Department / City of Effingham had closed the road from Raney to Heartland Boulevard until they were able to make repairs. That didn't take long, and as of Saturday morning, the road is open and resurfaced.

Also, a reminder that Sunday, June 22 is the second (of four) Summer Concert Series' featuring Scott Wattles, from 6:00-7:00pm on the Cross grounds. Attendees are encouraged to bring lawn chairs and/or blankets.
