Over the weekend, while I was emceeing the FoCo BandChamps, I witnessed quite a few kids playing in the fountain in Old Town Square. Immediately I thought, do parents not realize how dirty that water is? I have heard stories about that fountain that would make you cringe and to see these little kids walking around in it and splashing each other made me say gross a couple of times. I even saw a little girl slip and get fully submerged and then start crying and run to her mom. To me it doesn't seem like a good idea to let them play in that. If your kids want to play in the water, take them over to the spraying fountains that are across the street and up 1 block.

I know that I am the last person to give advice about kids and by no means am I one of those people that is telling you how to raise your kids, I just think that there would be better alternatives than that gross fountain.
