Olson has donated 16" x 20" prints suitable for framing of the following covered bridges: Horse Creek Bridge, Earnest Bridge, Good pasture Bridge, and Lowell Bridge. Single prints are available for $3 each and may be purchased at the Lane County Museum and the Lane County Information Center in Harris Hall. Olson's donation is an attempt to generate interest and private support for the preservation of Lane County’s 21 covered bridges, 19 of which are in county ownership. Lane County has a higher concentration of covered bridges than any other similar sized area in the world. Tourists from all over the United States know and seek out Lane County’s bridges because of the national attention they receive. Olson feels that such a resource should be preserved, and feels that private revenues might help supplement costs incurred from main taining, recording or possibly relocating the county's covered bridges. Persons interested in obtaining copies of the prints may do so at the Lane County Museum, 740 West 13th Ave., Eugene. The Museum is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Thursday, and 1 to 5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. The Museum is closed Fridays.
