The Little Mermaid
The Little Mermaid of Kimballton was sculpted out of fiberglass by a pair of California college students, and was installed in town in 1978. She was moved indoors every winter after the elements took their toll. In July 2008, The Little Mermaid was recast in bronze, allowing her to be visible all year long. She was rededicated, along with Mermaid Park's new fountain and landscaping, at the town's 125th anniversary celebration.
