WELCOME to Beautiful Sugarcreek Township
an Open Space Community.

Covered bridges recall a certain era in our history of Sugarcreek Township and are a symbol of quieter, less pressured times.

Covered bridges developed because of their unique engineering features. The first bridges were merely logs thrown across a stream with poles used as supports. Builders learned that the trusses of the framework would last longer if they were sheltered. So, the covered bridge was born. The Sugarcreek Township area had six covered bridges.

Today, Sugarcreek Township boasts of much construction far more modern than covered bridges but just as rooted in sound engineering principles. It is a growing community with current land development. There are several parks and a wildlife reserve along with many small lakes and streams. Shopping opportunities abound in Sugarcreek Township and it is home to the 15,000 member Far Hills Community Church. There's a lot to explore in Sugarcreek Township!
