Blog Guelph: Covered Bridge Face
Guelph's Lattice Covered Footbridge was built in June 1992 near the junction of the Speed and Eramosa Rivers by 400 timberframers who were gathered in Guelph from all across North America.
Let me repeat that. Four hundred people came to Guelph to volunteer their time and build us a bridge because it's what they like to do.
Based on an original design from the 1800s, it is one of only two in all of Ontario.

Blog Guelph: Covered Bridge Interior
The five-day gathering of members from the International Timber Framers Guild resulted in the building of a 120' pedestrian lattice-covered bridge over the Speed River. You can still purchase the video of that incredible event right here.

Blog Guelph: Other Side
I remember standing up to my waist in the river, all dewy eyed as the bridge was slowly swung into position. I was not alone. Hundreds of amazed Guelphites were watching on the shores, out in their boats, or like me standing right in the middle of the river .

Blog Guelph: Bridge Reflection
After the bridge was secured in place, a large celebration took place in the adjacent park. The BBQ portion was well attended by the community but strangely the dance was not. Imagine my delight when my three girlfriends and I realized that we had almost 400 fit and handsome dance partners to choose f rom.

Blog Guelph: Bridge Interior
Later in the evening, my friends and I climbed up into the tresses of the new bridge and hung out with a dozen of the Timber Framers. They claimed that we would be the new keepers of the bridge.
