On the Move with Parks and Rec would like to thank Zurn Elkay Water Solutions for donating the pet-friendly water fountain, that is now located at Morrison Bark Park. The fountain is up and running, and both dogs and owners are loving it!

Zurn Elkay also invited the On the Move with Parks and Rec (OTM) team to the Lanark plant, to meet the team who put the fountain together. OTM quickly learned there are a lot of steps and teamwork to fabricate these fountains.

“Zurn Elkay has been very generous and accommodating throughout this entire process for our group. The tour we were given of the manufacturing facility in Lanark was really impressive, and you could tell their team took great pride in their work,” Nick Volckmann, OTM stated.

Trevan Burn noted, “I was very impressed with the Lanark plant and the team. The robot work was pretty cool to watch, too!.”
