Perhaps there should be an 'Events' section to tell about Spencer's various events throughout the calendar year, found here; http://www.spenceriowachamber.org/events.html -Opt05 (talk) 18:08, 22 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

The Coming of the Railroad

edit

The article says, "Between June and September 1878, the Chicago, Milwaukee & St Paul Railway built a line west from Algona to Spencer...and regular service began on September 15" and "In 1899, growth here was stimulated by construction of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway to the settlement." If both these statements are true, I would like to know how. J S Ayer (talk) 21:34, 19 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
