From Past To Present
Discover the best places, architecture, and hidden gems Springfield Township has to offer. From art and local events to small business highlights, there’s always something happening.
Experience Springfield Township was created by local Realtor Tia Lentini as a heartfelt tribute to her family’s deep roots in the community. Inspired by her grandparents, Patricia (Weiland) Bragwell and Bill Bragwell, longtime residents of Springfield Township, and her great-great-grandfather, Carl Weiland, a proud Sawyerwood entrepreneur, Tia built this platform to honor the legacy of those who shaped the place we call home.
Tia was soon joined by her husband, Steve Lentini, whose passion for community storytelling and local engagement helped grow the project into what it is today. Steve manages Experience Springfield Township, ensuring it remains a trusted resource and a proud reflection of the township’s history, businesses, and community life.
What began as a family connection has grown into a community-focused platform that celebrates the people, places, and stories that make Springfield Township unique. By combining local businesses, events, and neighborhood highlights, Experience Springfield Township helps residents and visitors explore everything the township has to offer.
Rooted in heritage and driven by community pride, Experience Springfield Township is dedicated to keeping our township connected, informed, and celebrated today and for generations to come.
