Landmark Trek Video – The Birge Fountain

With the Birge Fountain’s 120th Anniversary Celebration happening on location this Sunday, June 25, 1-4 p.m., it seemed appropriate for the second episode of Landmark Trek to cover one of our most popular landmark treasures. “Is there anyone who lives in Whitewater who doesn’t have a special memory of the Birge Fountain?” says Landmark Commission member, James Olm. “To commemorate this great Whitewater art-piece, we wanted this video episode to refresh people’s memories on its history past and present, and importance of it in our community.” The Landmark Commission is inviting the general public to come down to the fountain on Sunday for cake, fountain enjoyment, and conversation. Olm adds, “And while you’re having fun at the fountain, you can catch The Arts Alliance Quilting Show right next door in the Cultural Arts Center. What a great way to celebrate Whitewater’s arts offerings!” You can watch the second episode now at:
