More about the Event:

If you have never been on Zion’s annual historical cemetery tour it’s worth it. It’s not meant to be frightening, but rather to introduce you to some of the figures who are buried in Zion’s cemetery. Our civil war reenactor spent large amounts of time looking up the history of Private Jago and does a great job. Scouts and high school actors and members of Zion will be doing many of the roles. In fact, if you know someone who would enjoy portraying someone we certainly can find a part. We pay a small fee to the to our actors to encourage them to participate. Hope you will check this event out.

TO RSVP: E mail zionflourtownsec@yahoo.com or call 215-836-4658. You can pay the night of the event. Remember to Bring a flashlight. Thanks, Pastor Marcia Thompson
