I sent this email (below) to the downtown development office last year after the fountain had been turned on for the season and got a response saying that they may consider it for the future.
I love seeing the Kellogg Park fountain when it's been uncovered from long Winter months and is first flowing. I always think though - it's a good thing I drove through town, otherwise I may not have known it was turned on. That got me thinking that there may be an opportunity to create some additional excitement for the coming of Spring's warm weather by creating an "event" where the fountain is turned on - like a rite of passage for Springtime in Plymouth! :) It's the center of downtown, viewable from every corner and a sure sign that you're in the best little downtown around.

I am a huge fan of plymouth and i just so happen to live here:) i'm young and i live two blocks from downtown. i enjoy participating in the local events: farmer's market, music in the air, walking downtown, art in the park, chili festival etc...My issue is that i have to search to find out when these events and smaller events are happening. i walk my dog downtown and read the calendars posted on the merchants windows in order to find out more of what is going on in the area. i'm wondering if this info could be posted somewhere that you could see while driving? i suppose a "plymouth blog" would be the best thing but if it was posted somewhere then visitors walking downtown could participate more?! ...just an idea. fyi...i have used the internet to search the start date of "art in the park" etc... but i'm talking about the plays, local music, poetry readings...that sort of thing.

I think it would be fun to have an open mic night in the park for local talent to have a night/place to perform!

My friend and I are incoming sophomores at Plymouth Canton Educational Park and have seen this game called paint twister all over the internet this summer. After learning about the game we realized that it would be a great idea to have the community participate in it. The activity would be for all ages and take place in the park in the center of downtown Plymouth. It would only be for a day and would just be a bunch of twister mats with paint placed in the center of each dot on the mat. Players would receive a white t-shirt upon entry of initial game of twister (cost for one person to play a starting game is $3.00). Each game would last 7 minutes but players would be welcome to return to play as many times as desired but would not recieve another t-shirt upon re-entry. (every game after initial game is $1.50). The goal of this activity is not only to bring the people of Plymouth and Canton together for a fun day in the park, but also to raise money for St. Jude's Children's Hospital.
