Parting Shot II

The University of Findlay’s oil derrick fountain, a gift to the university from the Classes of 1956 and 2006, was dedicated Oct. 7, 2006, during Homecoming weekend. The design of the fountain recognizes the Ohio city’s early days as an oil town. Shortly after the university was established in 1882, the first gas well was drilled in the city of Findlay. It produced oil for a short time, bringing new industries and people to the area, many of whom remained as the gas well was depleted. The university continues to embrace its early history; the school’s athletic teams are the Oilers, and UF’s mascot is Derrick the Oiler.
