An SCV camp in South Carolina is selling iron crosses for Confederate grave sites, except that these iron crosses are not made of iron. They look great and are a lot cheaper.

A link for the Composite Crosses of Honor our Camp is using instead of those made out of aluminum or steel. See http://www.moseswoodcamp.org/ironcrosses.htm.
The Composite Cross is a similar material to a bowling ball, and the foundry in Gaffney uses this same material for many outdoor and machinery parts. The Crosses are a finished product in color black, and do not have to be primed or painted, as we had to do with the many steel or aluminum Crosses we have installed throughout Cherokee County in South Carolina.
I remember last year or earlier this year a Camp West of the Mississippi had stated they were paying about $75-100 for each Cross. We are selling the Composite Crosses for $25 plus Shipping to any SCV Camp. Do you think there could be any interest out West for a Composite Cross?
