Check it out guys!

We have wanted to do an open house for awhile and it's going to happen. Join us September 29th for an open house at the former Coles County Poor Farm and later Ashmore Estates. There is no charge for this but we hope you will bring items to donate to Coles County Animal Shelter and Ashmore Food Pantry. This is not a paranormal investigation and no equipment will be allowed. Come out and join us for a quick tour of the property and to take some photos as you like.
