Historical Society Program, April 22

From a log tavern in the early Ohio wilderness to a grand resort hotel intended to rival the Greenbrier, for nearly 100 years Yellow Springs was celebrated as a place for visitors to come rest, relax, and take the waters, while enjoying the extraordinary beauty of the “wild and romantic” scenery along Yellow Springs creek and the nearby falls of the Little Miami River. At 2:00 p.m. on April 22 in the Great Room of the Yellow Springs Senior Citizens Center, Yellow Springs Historical Society President David Neuhardt will present the history of the several hotels and associated recreational facilities that enticed visitors to our far-famed springs--and some of the characters that made them memorable.
