“It was one of those old-style movie theatres from back in the ’60s and ’70s. It had the balcony, the popcorn stand and that, candies, popcorn, pop. They had the stuff they called swamp water which was a mixture of different pops.” – Kevin Burgess, Springhill, NS

“They were old, old buildings, so it didn’t take much or them to burn. Couldn’t save them. Was a great town. Still is.” – Karl McDonald, Springhill, NS

“My biggest memory of Springhill is the night of the fire in 1975. I drove down the street at midnight, and when I got up the next morning it was gone.” – Steven Millard, Springhill, NS
