The Tennessee Municipal League presented the City of Springfield with an award for Excellence in Parks and Recreation. The award was in recognition of their ongoing efforts made to provide diverse parks and recreation opportunities to its citizens. Springfield has five parks that provide access to recreation for all areas of the community with each park within three miles of downtown Springfield’s courthouse square. Three of the city’s parks are connected by the Springfield Greenway, which also connects to the square, as well as several neighborhoods, the city recreation center, and two schools.
