Baker as a memorial to his son, George Hobart Baker, who was killed in an automobile accident in 1913.&nbsp;Both men had been members and chief engineers of the Owego Fire Department.&nbsp;The fountain was last restored in 2000 and has again fallen into disrepair.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The overall cost estimate for the restoration is upwards of $100,000.&nbsp;Repairs that must be made include cement and concrete replacement, cast iron refurbishment, repainting, pipe, and plumbing and pump work, basin liner repair and updated landscaping.&nbsp;For a complete restoration the fountain will have to be disassembled and transported to a conservation facility for treatment.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The hose team hopes to have the restoration complete this year. &nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Owego Hose Teams, Inc. has teamed up with Bill\u2019s Restaurant to host a chicken wing-eating contest on Thursday, Feb. 22.
