Ride to help rebuild burned bridge

Thursday, July 13, 2006

A Springfield News-Leader article says:

The Polk County Bicycle Club is taking preregistrations for its Aug. 5 "Sack Lunch at the Sac River" ride to help raise money to rebuild the burned-out bridge crossing the Little Sac River on the Frisco Highline Trail.

Riders can make a 28-mile round trip starting at the trailhead near Bolivar Middle School or a four-mile ride from Wishart to the bridge.

The ride from Bolivar starts at 8 a.m., while riders starting at Wishart can join the ride at 10 a.m.

The club set up the ride after a fire destroyed the wooden deck and railing on the bridge June 9. Ozark Greenways aims to raise $100,000 to rebuild the bridge by September.

Polk County Bicycle Club web site, with more info about the ride, is here.

To learn more about the Little Sac River bridge or donate to its reconstruction, visit the Ozark Greenways web site.
