My Aunt Virginia Lieuallen Petett used to tell about when she was going to the School of the Ozarks in High School (yes, they had a high school there) they would go to Marvel Cave for a school picnic. There was nothing there, but a hole in the ground and a ladder to climb down and fire torches to guide them. She died in 2007 at 99 and a half years old.
I remeber going there once before SDC was built and then the next year the front street was there and the Wilderness Church. The highway actually cut through between the front street and the church. You had to walk across the highway to get to the church, but there wasn't much traffic back then. This would have been I'm guessing the late 1950's.
We attended church on Sunday morning there when we went to the park.
