The City of Nelsonville regrets to inform the public that the Nelsonville Public Square fountain will not return to the public square until after the Parade of The Hills Festival. The fountain was scheduled to be placed on August 17, 2026, unfortunately mother nature had other plans. The concrete basin for the fountain could not be finished in time due to the unusually heavy rain we have experienced lately.
The Nelsonville Public Square fountain is now scheduled to be placed on Wednesday, August 26, 2026, if mother nature cooperates. The City of Nelsonville apologizes for this delay, but we want to make sure everything is done correctly so the Nelsonville Public Square fountain can return to its place of honor since 1904 and continue to be enjoyed by the public for many years to come. Thank you for your patience and understanding in this matter.
