Olcott Fountain Ground Breaking to be Held Friday

System Failed in 2013

The Olcott fountain’s pump system failed back in 2013, and now, restoration of the fountain is estimated to cost $900,000, part which would be covered by grants while the other by private donations. 

But after a year of work, The Virginia community foundation, city of Virginia and the Olcott park fountain fund committee are finally celebrating their ground breaking ceremony this Friday.  

The ceremony will be held at the Fountain Site in the Virginia Olcott Park.
