Marker Inscription

Constructed about 1903 on property deeded by Lavantia Conger, this two-story building has served as a civic center for the farming community of China Spring. An outside wooden staircase was removed when the structure was remodeled in 1934 by the Works Progress Administration. Camp 707 of the Woodmen of the World, organized in 1899, conducted meetings on the second floor until 1969. The Tabernacle has been used for school assemblies, church revivals, traveling shows, amateur theatricals, lectures, and political rallies. (1980)
