Born and raised in Saratoga I would go to the spring with my Dad every Sunday before church. Every time I return for a visit my first stop is at the spring. Last summer I went just to find out it wasn’t running. It was hard to believe I was so disappointed over some water. It is now four months later and I’m still concerned about the spring. On the bright side I just read an article about the city replacing the plumbing/spouts. Thank you all for retaining some history.
