(KAIR)--It's being called a unique attraction for a small community.
That follows the re-installation of the clocks in the Horton City Hall Clock Tower.
The work was made possible through a local fund raising campaign that came as part of the ongoing Reinvent Horton project.
According to a press release from the Reinvent Horton Committee, the funds, amounting to around $25,000, were raised by both current and past citizens of Horton who wanted to see the clocks returned to the tower.
All four of the clocks were purchased from the Verdin Clock Company of Cincinnati, Ohio, which also conducted the installation.
According to the press release, “it is very unusual to see a clock tower in running condition in a small town unless it's the county seat.”
Visitors to Horton can now view the four clocks, which glow at night.
The success of the restoration of the clocks will be commemorated with a dedication ceremony planned for Saturday. It will begin at 11:00 at City Hall, with all members of the public invited.
