It’s a big year for Fountain Hills. This December, the iconic fountain turns 50. But because of the coronavirus, plans to celebrate the town’s landmark could be delayed or modified.
Rachael Goodwin is the town’s community services director. She says right now the town is moving forward with its current plans to celebrate the fountain. And if they have to adjust those plans?
"I don't think that will change the idea that we want to celebrate what the fountain means to our community after 50 years," said Goodwin. "So it may mean something virtual. It may mean something where we ask the community to contribute photos and memories and things like that of their time here in Fountain Hills.
The fountain was built in 1970 by Robert McCulloch — the same man who brought the London Bridge to Lake Havasu.
