About This Spring
## Overview The Old Lind Center Town Hall Spring is a free-flowing public drinking spring located alongside County Road A in the rural community of Lind Center, Waupaca County, Wisconsin. Situated on the grounds of the historic Old Lind Center Town Hall, this spring has long served as a convenient roadside water source for locals and travelers alike. The spring features a charming old-fashioned hand pump that has been permanently welded into the open position, allowing water to flow continuously without any pumping required. This clever modification means visitors can simply walk up and fill their containers from the steady stream of water. The spring has historically been used as a public drinking water source by the surrounding community. ## Directions 1.
