Tiny but tenacious, The Boy with the Goosey is a charming, character-filled sculpture crafted by the artisan hand of Girolamo Piccoli in 1927. This lively lad, currently gettin' some TLC, jolly well represents a young fellow whoof streams water when he's turned on, while his feathery companion sprays water just as remarkably. You guessed it – back in 1925, Andrew A. McCabe was the one who made this water feature his home,Setting it up on North Lake Drive. Now lemme fill ya in on this – folks adored it so, that a duplicate of ol' Goosey was made and displayed for all in Lake Park in 1927.
