Notes:

  • The November 28, 1976 edition of The Ada Sunday News ran an article titled "Sulphur Foot Bridge Dedication Scheduled": "SULPHUR — The Kiwanis Club Bicentennial Bridge, a swinging foot bridge across Rock Creek, will be dedicated at 12:30 p.m. Tuesday... The suspension bridge, which was built across Rock Creek near the south end of Bulldog Stadium, has been open since late October. It provides easy access to the school grounds for students coming from east Sulphur. Designed by Supt. Calvin Agee and elementary Principal DeLannom, the bridge was built as the bicentennial project of the Sulphur Kiwanis Club. Club members and students from Sulphur's vocational training classes performed the work on the structure…"
  • The Ada Sunday Newsarticle description leads one to believe this was not a very substantial structure and no trace of it appears to remain (in 2020). Coordinates provided here are, approximate, based on the location description in the article.
