Fountain proponents hold car wash today

Thu., Aug. 12, 2004

By Mike Prager

People planning to erect an artistic play fountain in Riverfront Park are holding a benefit car wash today to promote the $1.25 million project.

Volunteers will be putting the shine on vehicles at the park drop-off zone at Howard Street and Spokane Falls Boulevard from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. The cost is a cash donation of the driver’s choice.

In addition, anyone who stops by the car wash can sign up to win an engraved salmon plaque to be included as part of the fountain. The 9-inch stainless steel plaques are going to contributors who give $500 to the project, but fountain promoters have decided to hold a drawing for a free plaque in conjunction with the car wash.

The fountain is a joint undertaking of Spokane Rotary 21 Club and the city parks department. The car wash is being held at the same location where the fountain would be erected, just west of the Carrousel.

Debbie Lockhert, public relations chairwoman for the Rotary group, said fund-raising recently surpassed the $1 million mark. It includes $425,000 in park funds from a 1999 voter-approved bond issue, plus major gifts from private sources. Rotary sponsors are now seeking smaller contributions from the general public.

She said the club is putting on the car wash “to raise funds and also raise awareness of the fountain.”

Ground breaking is expected in October, and completion next spring, she said.

Club organizers had hoped to have the project completed by this year, but a slowdown in the region’s economy caused the fund-raising to take longer than anticipated, Lockhert said.

The Rotary Riverfront Park Fountain would be both a sculpture and recreational attraction. It would follow a recommendation for installing an entrance fountain that dates back to the establishment of Riverfront Park in 1975. The park occupies former railroad land initially reclaimed for Expo ‘74.

The flat-deck fountain would include jets, sprays, misters and other features that would use water that is recaptured by an underground vault and filtered like a swimming pool. Some 155 jets would be capable of throwing 3,500 gallons of water a minute.

Harold Balazs has been commissioned for the sculpture. The work would tell the story of the Spokane Falls and its relationship to native people. Fiber optics would be used to illuminate the jets at night. The fountain could be operated in winter to create ice formations. Computers would time jets to colored lights and music for fountain shows at different times.

The free “spray ground” will be open to all ages and abilities and accessible by wheelchairs.

Rotary breaks ground on park fountain

By Hilary Kraus


unlike Perron’s original idea – sculptured children holding hands in water – the flat-deck Rotary Fountain will be run by computer and will be constantly changing. It will have about 140 water jets, sprays, misters, ground hugging fog and other features. It will stand on five stainless columns that are 24 feet high.


“This is going to be one of those things that brings ‘Wow!’ to the city,” West said.

New report: Doomed astronauts fought to save Columbia

Fliers' final moments on Columbia

Report details astronauts' efforts to save doomed shuttle and offers ways to avoid future losses of life

MARK CARREAU, Copyright 2008 Houston Chronicle December 30, 2008

They were doomed already and did not know it.

Against all odds, the astronauts aboard the space shuttle Columbia tried to gain control of their shattered and tumbling ship in the seconds before they lost consciousness and died.

A pilot punched buttons on a control panel and tried to restart systems as the vessel — its heat shield shattered — violently spun, pitched and rolled some 200,000 feet above Texas, a little north of the Dallas area.

The crew performed courageously, trying to problem-solve their way to safety. But the Feb. 1, 2003, accident was not survivable, NASA said Tuesday in a new report that reconstructed the crash second by second and suggested changes to protect future crews. Within moments the crew was unconscious.

The detailed analysis of the craft's breakup and free fall by NASA's Spacecraft Crew Survival Investigative Team offered a sobering reminder of the hazards of human spaceflight.

Rick Husband, William McCool, Mike Anderson, Kalpana Chawla, David Brown, Laurel Clark and Israeli astronaut Ilan Ramon succumbed to violent trauma as the crew compartment snapped away from the shuttle's body, and the life-sustaining oxygen inside rushed out through small but growing breaches in the walls above and below them.
