Sing-a-long at Riley Methodist Church

In late summer, while the cicadas drone, come and see the annual Afternoon Sing-along at the 1895 Riley Church, 9316 Riley Road, Marengo

Check out our event calendar to see when the event is scheduled.

To reach the church, take Route 23 south of Marengo to Anthony Road. Turn right (west) to Riley Road. It is located just north of the intersection – between the school and township hall. Parking is permitted in the school lot. Refreshments and conversation follow.

Like the Society’s 1885 Perkins Hall in Seneca Township, there are no restrooms. Plan accordingly. For information, call 815-923-2267.
