101 THINGS TO DO Spring City’s annual Heritage Day will be celebrated on Saturday, May 27, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The main location will be the Spring City Community Center (also known as the “Old School”) located at 45 S. 100 East.

The annual historic Home Tour is back in full force, with this year’s tour including more than 25 of Spring City’s charming, mid-19th century pioneer homes and buildings. Spring City is one of just a handful of communities in the United States where the whole town is on the National Historic Registry.

All money raised through the Home Tour will be used for historic preservation in Spring City.
