In 1995, the Anne Springs Close Greenway, a 2,100 acre nature preserve in Fort Mill, South Carolina, was dedicated to the public to serve as a natural buffer from urban development and a place for countless activities – from hiking, mountain biking and horseback riding, to picnics, kayaking and more. It is owned and operated by the 501(c)3 non-profit organization, Leroy Springs & Company, which has been providing recreational and educational opportunities to the communities surrounding Chester, Lancaster and York counties for over 60 years.
