Do you have experience with Grants? Help us find Grant funding to save our Historical Bridges! The more eyes we have watching potential grants the better! We’ve found a few small grants this week that could make a little progress, but we are hoping to find the big grant soon! Usually May-June is the grant cycle to watch out for. Thanks!
If you have any potential leads please email keesevillehistoricbridges(at)gmail.com

Every time I have been out today I see more and more signs going up. It’s really fun to see 8 months of research starting to pay off. Thank you all for the support!
Make sure to grab yours ASAP. It’s very important we send a message that we are a community that wants to work with the Counties to get this done. Hopefully we won’t have to keep the signs up for a long time, but it’s definitely important to send a strong message at the beginning. The more signs up the better! Pick up your signs today at Loreman’s, Peru Credit Union, Arnolds, Stewarts, and the town offices! Later this weekend they will also be available at Ridged Performance (Ausable St) and on Tuesday Keeseville Free Library!
Also,
Thank you to the Town of Ausable crew that cleaned up the area in front of the Old State Road on the Clinton County Side of the river! It looks great! Last year the community was able to clean in front of the Upper Bridge, and now both bridges are looking better and better. Let’s get those yard signs up and find a way to get this accomplished!

I just forwarded some ‘potential’ grant information to Essex County Highway DPW Jim Dougan. He got back very quickly and shared the info with his research team. Thank you Jim! We appreciate it very much. I also shared the info with Clinton County and I’m sure I will get the same response from them too. Fingers Crossed this pans out. We can all work together, and hopefully one day we can all celebrate together with a cold ‘beverage’ of choice on our newly restored bridges.
