Overview

Mission

To preserve and promote Missouri mormon history in the 1830s.

What it reported doing in 2024

1. To create authenticity, we hold on-date, on-site activities where we meet at the original site that a historical event occurred and as near to the original date as possible. 2. Sponsor presentations (both indoor and outdoor) on the historical people, timelines and events of Missouri mormon history in the 1830s. 3. Sponsor road-tours and personal tours of the historical areas. 4. Reach out to include a global audience through our website and social media platforms. 5. Provide two map brochures: (1)location of historical sites within 100 miles driving distance, (2)walking tour of the original townsite they arrived at. 6. All the above is provided at no charge.
