with volunteers, local saw mills and area land owners donating the trees rebuilt the bridge to it's original glory. I know of several other bridges that were burned down by vandals that were never rebuilt. Very few bridges you can drive through anymore, but I know a few you can. It's my little treat to give friends a ride through the Indiana countryside and drive through bridges.

Here is a link and pictures about rebuilding the Bridgetown Covered Bridge.
