Tour Guides
The tours will be led by Tay and Bruce. Tay is an actress and entrepreneur from Jacksonville who found her way to White Springs during the pandemic. The town's rich history and small town charm has made her proud to call White Springs home. She's excited to use her talents for the preservation of our community. English invader from across the pond over 40 years ago, Bruce is now retired and living in White Springs since 2017. The music (he sings shanties at festivals) and the olde world historic rural setting attracted him. A historic buff of yore with family archaeologist connections, Bruce is eager to show you what historic White Springs once had and what it proudly maintains today.
