The contest is an initiative to increase membership, awareness and education about the historical significance of Roebling Bridge. The CCSBC effort supported the installation of the tear drop lighting and continues to dedicate efforts to preserve and beautify the John A. Roebling Bridge which includes maintenance and operational upkeep of the lighting and installation of the flags.
“CCSBC promotes the photography contest as a vehicle to increase membership, so we can educate the public about the iconic engineering significance and continue our efforts in illuminating the bridge and future operational costs,” said Sherry Roth, CCSBC president. “CCSBC has a membership of 150+ members, and we continue to work hard to increase the membership, so we can continue to highlight the bridge’s historical engineering significance to the public.”
