Donated in 1988 to Hope College,
the tradition is continued through
the presentation of
both live performances and film.

NEW: Instructions for logging Missing Marker Visits.

If the Marker is missing, but still listed here, you must provide a photo of you at the actual item historically honored. (This should be the waymark's "default" image).
