Ozark Fountain
Ozark Fountain was designed to emulate an Ozarks stream with its meandering water complete with waterfalls, ripples, sound and a portion that disappears under the walkway. The big draw here is that kids (young and old alike) are allowed to play in the fountain.
Materials: Two colors of granite (rose and black).
The entire system is computer controlled.
Fountain includes:
18 Microshooter Jets (Air and Water powered)
36 Analog Jets
Stream has 8 Jellyfish (another type of water jet) along the upper portion.
Water Volume of entire system: approx. 21,000 gallons
Cost: $1,000,000 (Equipment: $600,000; Construction and Materials $400,000)
Designer: WET Design, Los Angeles, CA (the same company that designed the $60,000,000 fountains at the Bellagio in Las Vegas NV, among hundreds throughout the world).
Fountain Schedule - 7 days a week
30-minute shows at the top of every hour, 10 a.m.-9:30 p.m.
Continuous show from 11 a.m. - 1:30 p.m.
The Ozark Stream operates continously during the season of operation, with repairs occassionally scheduled.
