Great news. MMS AE has finished the blueprints and gave them to us yesterday evening Nov. 10 \/ 2005. When I say gave – I mean they did all the work and gave them to us for free. The drawings are beautiful. It is a very close replica of the original bridge.<\/p>\n

Now we can start deciding who is going to build the bridge, what is it going to cost, what is actually donated and how many dollar$ are we going to have to come up with. At this time we have somewhere around $130,000 collected. Plus the Parke County Auditor, PCI and the Community Foundation have collected some.<\/p>\n

We need to have the abutments and the center pier examined to see if they need work. We are looking for some experts in this field who can help.<\/p>\n

Check back for more info. We are going to have another meeting on Dec. 8th<\/p>\n

If you would like to donate go to rebuildthebridge.com<\/p>\n

Thanks \u2013 Tell you friends<\/p>\n
