On July 1,1906 John Studebaker dedicated the Electric Fountain in South Bend and said it would out live the wonders of Egypt only to be dismantled, lost and now found again. We are trying to restore his gift and return it to it's original home in Howard Park and are starting a petition to try to make this possible. If you would like to support this please sign the petition. Thanks https://www.ipetitions.com/petition/...to-howard-park

I thought I had seen some recent pictures of some of the figures having already been restored and awaiting assembly. Was I dreaming?
Perhaps a Gofundme appeal might be even more encouraging than a petition.Brad Johnson,

Sweet dreams. Nothing done yet but have had two restoration companies look at it. One has given an estimate and the other will be sent out in January. Really need some people on the petition to present to the City Administration and Park Department. Thanks as always. Tim
