    Friends of Two Bridges is a grassroots citizen group focused on the design, construction, and opening of the Union Street and Minto Brown Island bridges and connecting pathways to bicyclists and pedestrians. A variety of interests are represented in this group, including the recreational community, historic preservationists, area children's advocates, downtown merchants, property owners, and statewide cycling interests. We have celebrated the opening of the Union Street Railroad Bridge and we are dedicated to the completion of the projected Minto Brown Island Bridge. As a group we advocate to generate interest and enthusiasm toward the ultimate goal, "Three Parks, Two Bridges, One Community."

    Be Seen - Be Safe! Jasper extends her D.O.G.S. special!

    Hi! I'm Jasper! As Director of Greetings and Sales [D.O.G.S.] I want you to be safe out there so you don't get run over. If you get run over, you may not come in for awhile and I don't get to greet you. This would really bum me out :-( I like to greet all customers (but not delivery people) with a wagging tail and cold nose. It's a great life! Not seeing you would be like a day without a dog treat.

    It's already starting to get dark out there. Your first line of defense is to make sure you're seen. So check out the fall gear at GFR and get into some something bright and reflective! Be Seen - Be Safe and come let me greet you!

    All Brooks Nightlife and Saucony Vizi-Pro apparel items are 15% off for the month of September. There are vests, jackets, shirts, and other accessories available. Mention my Jasper Special and the deal is yours!

    Brooks Nightlife Jackets shown below. The Saucony Vizi-Pro are an extremely bright orange.

    [OFFER GOOD ON IN-STORE ITEMS ONLY. No Special Orders for this deal].
