Show up at 12:30-1 or so at the Dell Bridge over Linnie Canal and the VCA folks should be able to sell you one!

Not all the bridge received fresh paint.  I wonder who decided and how it was decided which ones did and did not receive fresh paint.

pretty sure the neighbors just decided to make it nice for the event and paint the bridges where the races were, it did not look like a city crew, just some hired painters
