This artesian water source was found when the village of Winslow dug a new well. Now the excess water flows out of the supply building through pipes into a nearby creek. A spigot has been installed so that anyone can visit and fill as many containers as they want. The water is tested twice each month.
Enjoy a nice cool drink before and after you visit the beautiful park that is also located there.
To get to the well, watch for signs and then go down the alley by the church, not up the hill.
