Most Springboro Area Historical Society activities are open to the public. But society membership offers even more opportunities, including in-depth experiences, a wider range of topics, field trips to other communities, and social activities with people who have similar interests. Join here.
July 13 | Details & Sign-Up Information to Come
Springboro Historical Society members will visit the Clinton County History Museum to learn about this farming county's history, including what it has in common with Springboro. Like Springboro, many of its early residents were Quakers who played an important role in the Underground Railroad from the 1830s to 1860s. Quaker residents also established Wilmington College in 1870. The county is home to the youngest boy to serve in the Civil War.
The Springboro area is recognized as a Historic Underground Railroad Site, with 27 documented safe houses, 18 in the city and nine in the township. Our 60-minute guided walking tours cover a six-block radius highlighting the many sites still standing in our historic downtown. The second of two free members-only tours is offered in September. Register by clicking on the date:
1. EARLY BIRD PRIZE - Any new or renewing member in November or December has their name entered in an Early Bird drawing for a one-of-a-kind Springboro mug and a $25 gift certificate to a local business. The drawing occurs in early January.
2. MEMBERSHIP PRIZE - A second drawing in early March will include all early bird entries plus new or renewal memberships received in January and February.
3. REFERRAL REWARD PRIZE - Any member who makes a referral for a new paid membership will be entered into a raffle, with the winner announced at the Ice Cream Social. Current members can provide a new member with a join form with your name on it as the referrer OR ask the new member to write your name on the form.
