POWER HOUSE COVERED BRIDGE
What is the significance of this bridge? This bridge within walking distance to the village center, is a symbol of Johnson and very close to the heart. Even the Town emblem has a covered bridge on it. This bridge while a link to our past, covers and protects us from the elements on the road to our future.
