Hay rides, walks on the trails, disc golf, chili, hot dogs, chips, brownies, stars at Prairie Grass Observatory, silent auction, seeing old friends…it’s all part of the annual Chili Dinner at Camp Cullom.
Camp Cullom is a 90 acre Camp owned by the Children of Clinton County. The Chili dinner celebrates the crisp fall weather with beautiful fall foliage peaking about this time. Check out the Camp Cullom 5 mile trail system, disc golf, Prairie Grass Observatory, play ground, stream and ponds while you are there.
The Camp is open all day as usual, giving families plenty of time to walk the trails, play disc golf and enjoy the fall colors. The Chili Dinner begins at 4:30 and remains open til 7:00 pm. No tickets are required this year. It is a “FREE WILL OFFERING” for the supper. At dusk, Camp Cullom’s Prairie Grass Observatory (weather permitting) will show off star clusters, planets, constellations, meteorites, space videos and more.
Proceeds from the “all you can eat” Chili Dinner help support the Camp along with critical Clinton County United Way funds. The Camp has received permission to hold the Chili Dinner in October because of the unique timing of the fall foliage and superior Astronomy viewing this time of year.
Friends of Camp Cullom are encouraged to give to the United Way for Clinton County and come to the Camp for the Annual Chili Dinner. A silent auction will be held during the event.
Camp Cullom is located between Frankfort and Mulberry at 6815 W. County Road 200 N. in Clinton County.
