A 30-year tradition in McLean County is unfortunately coming to an end. 

The Evergreen Cemetery Walk has been a long-standing tradition, where attendees can hear from famous people from McLean County who have passed. Candace Summers, Senior Director of Education at the McLean County History Museum told Regional Radio that this year, they are going out with a bang. 

As Summers mentioned, this will be the last year of the Cemetery Walk. She explains this was a decision made due to funding issues and a lack of volunteers since the pandemic. 

Summers notes that this was a recent decision, but ending this tradition will open the door for new opportunities in the future.
