Springfield Georgia-County Fair Parade

Each year people line the streets of Springfield Georgia to watch the Effingham County Fair Parade.  One of the traditions is that participants in the parade throw bubble gum and candy to the onlookers.

Springfield Georgia-Seat of Effingham County Georgia

Located along the Savannah River north of the City of Savannah is Effingham County.  Today the community is vibrant and serves as an extension of the metro area of Savannah.  With a rich history and the preservation of many structures, it offers visitors a peek into the past.  Today we’ll take a look at the Historic Courthouse built in 1908.  A new courthouse serves the community today as a judicial complex while the historic building still houses other administrative offices.  The courtroom has also been used in movies, one being “The Gift” released in 2001.

The courtroom now appears silent, but I can only imagine some of the drama that went on when the seats were filled with witnesses, defendants. and lawyers
