Did you hear? BS Brew Works is starting a Silent Book Club! Instead of rushing to get the book chapters read and discussing them together, you’ll bring whatever you’re reading now to the brewery, share a bit about it, then just…well…enjoy reading on your own in silence with your favorite beverage and maybe a snack or two! Sounds dreamy and kicks off this Sunday from 2-4 pm. See you there!

The Robertson County Historical Society just received some spooktacular donations from Bo Adams, just in time for the season! This is an original “traveling casket” from Austin & Bell Funeral Home.

The size indicates it was likely for children or teens. The casket would be used to transport the individual to their final city, where they could be prepared for burial by the appropriate funeral home. It was likely used many times as a way to transport the dead.

Now, it has found its final resting place at the history museum on the square.

David and Kathy DeRose came into Springfield ready to make an impact, and boy have they ever! Last year, they purchased the Springfield Antique Barn and have transformed it into an antiquer's oasis. From a new HVAC Nd bathroom remodelings, to recruiting new booths and transforming layouts, it has been awesome to see!

Next up on their plate? Restoring 508 S. Main Street. The couple and their son are hard at work bringing this building back to life, with hopes to have retail or a restaurant on the first floor, and a loft for residential living on the second.

We're so thankful you chose Springfield, DeRoses!
