Spring Place Festival

Spring Place Festival, Spring Place, Georgia (2011): The Spring Place Community Festival (near Chatsworth, Georgia) will be held on Saturday, August 20 at Old Spring Place Methodist Church in Spring Place community near Chatsworth, Georgia. It begins at 8 a.m., with an auction at 10 a.m. This is the 14th annual event. This year's theme is All Roads Lead to Spring Place. A display of Historic Georgia and Murray County maps will be the theme feature. This is a small, old-fashioned festival, but lots of fun and homemade goodies, with a small-town feel. There will be a new and used book sale, bake sale, concessions, indoor flea market, raffle and auction. The event is co-sponsored by the Spring Place Ruritan Club. Proceeds benefit the Old Spring Place Methodist Church Preservation Fund of the Whitfield-Murray Historical Society. Hard to believe it's that time of year again!
