Our Mission

The mission of this organization is to ensure that the historic covered bridge, which had stood since 1892, is replaced in all its original glory. We will work to fairly represent the community of Wimer and to be a gathering point for comments, concerns, and fund-raising opportunities. We plan to work closely with the county and other organizations to ensure that the funds necessary are acquired and the re-building proceeds in a timely manner.

One of last Covered Bridges on the West Coast

Great covered bridge to see. Although it is the rebuilt one after the collapse the locals painstakingly tried to recreate but stronger the orginal bridge.

A nice suprise on a scenic trip family trip

Traveling through Oregon, which is beautiful, we happened to come across this little piece of history. The quaint town and natural surroundings were one of the highlights.

Historic location. Very well preserved and special to the locals.

The historic covered bridge has been moved so it could be preserved and a larger road could go through that area(this was about 10 years ago). It is a neat spot to take some great nature pics or eat lunch with the family. A must visit if you are in the area.

We had an hour to kill and went on Trip Advisor to see what we could see. We found this covered bridge. Was a nice side trip to see the fall leaves.
