Springfield Unity Project Held its Second Annual 'David Mitchell Community Day' to Honor First Responders

On Saturday, September 25th the Springfield Unity Project (S.U.P) held its second annual 'David Mitchell Community Day' to honor our First Responders. David Mitchell was a life long Springfield resident who loved his town, his classic cars and the first responders who keep our town safe. David's fight with cancer ended recently and being that he was a founding member of S.U.P it was only fitting to honor his commitment to the Springfield Unity Project by naming this event after him.
