The Park also hosts the annual Buick Grand National show and participates in the Corvette Homecoming every summer. Though located only a few miles from downtown Bowling Green, the one-lane bridge retains its rural character, and offers a view of Barren River that is simply breathtaking. A bridge at this location has connected Bowling Green to the northern portion of Warren County since 1819, and the present stone pylon was originally built for an 1838 bridge. The bridge has been completely restored and transformed into a walking bridge for visitors to enjoy the view of Barren River.
