The Presenting Organizations work hard all year long to plan Springfield Days and help make it a great community event. |
|||
| In the 1950's and 60's the Springfield Community held an annual celebration that consisted of food, games, fireworks, music and family fun. Most of the festivities were held in the big field at Old Keene Mill Road and Commerce Street (where Giant and K-Mart are today). In the early days of the community the annual event was held on July 4rth and organized by service organizations, the Springfield Civic Association, the Volunteer Fire Department and local businesses. As the community continued to grow and thrive so did celebrations, community infrastructure and county services and the July 4rth event migrated away from a local focus. Over 20 years ago the business community began a new tradition called Springfield Days that connected the business and residential community through sidewalk sales and special events. That tradition has evolved throughout the years into a full blown community wide celebration that harkens back to the good old days. The business community, Greater Springfield Area Chamber of Commerce, Springfield Mall, Springfield Civic Association, Fairfax County Park Authority and various service organizations have teamed up to offer the very best in family fun and entertainment. | |||
