Welcome to our community of ....

this picture taken from the Lake County Leader.

The Native Americans named this place Spring Creek when the first trading post was built in 1883. In 1885 name of the town was changed to Ronan Springs in honor of the Peter Ronan the Indian agent who worked with tribes from 1873 to 1892.

In 1912, half of the town burned from a fire that broke out in the automobile garage of Crawford & Clairmont during one of the worst wind storms of the season.

Well, the town is still thriving today with alot of community support as well as the continued support from the businesses of Ronan.
