Jum il-Fontana was commemorated at the weekend by the Fontana Local Council with an evening event in the locality. The 31st anniversary since the Council was founded.

As is the tradition, flowers were placed in front of the Fishermen’s Monument, the Fireworks Monument and the historic Niche of Our Savior.

Afterwards everyone was invited to follow a programme staged inside the Civic Centre Hall, during which Mayor Thomas Mizzi presented the Gieh il-Fontana to George Schembri, well known for his voluntary work in the past, present and future, both at the Fontana Parish Church and for matters related to the feast.

Recognition was also be given to councillors who served in the last legislature and are no longer serving.
