Coldwater . . . Rich With The poils Of Time ln this world of pernicity, a town can be sped through or over in seconds of time, but how often does one stop to think the years it takes for the town to develop. 1961 marks the centennial celebration of Coldwater. Only 100 years ago the town had a commemoration, for at that time the village of Cold- water was then incorporated as a township of Michi- gan. From this milestone of the toWn's history, Cold- water has advanced to a city of industry, farming, business, education and recreation. With its build- ings and concrete roads and sidewalks, the people of Coldwater have also made progress in the further- ing of education and cultural advancement. The city is finely laid out, most of the streets at right angles, and lined on either side with beautiful maples. -1. S. Conover True to the quote made in 1889, Coldwater has maintained its angular divisions and sheltering maples. Two parks, Parkhurst and Waterworks, are embroidered with tall hirches, elms, firs and the familiar maples. Here in the green, young and old can take time to relax in the company of friends, picnic with families, and participate in a variety of sports.
