I went to the RCA Park yesterday looking for the pickleball courts that I saw were located here when I searched on line. When I saw this sign I was confused. I didn't see any sign for pickleball so I thought I had the wrong place. I was about ready to leave when I finally noticed the pickleball courts beside the tennis courts. Why not put up a sign up for the pickleball courts to avoid confusion for others. Thank you

I have a couple of concerns. One is when they have treated for invasive species on the portion of the trail I walk between Country Club and Gordon, there is nothing other than a sign. There is no indications of what areas have been treated, nothing is blocked off. I'm also concerned about the fact that there isn't a spot to throw away animal poo bags on the trail between Country Club and Gordon. I have seen several abandoned along the trail or the waste not being picked up at all.

I run the Trail starting at Tapp Rd frequently. I have noticed a proliferation of plants along the Trail so that the Trail is narrowed considerably. Especially there is a plant with a pink blossom. It appears very invasive. I don't know if you want these plants or not. I would think not.

Paula, I wrote earlier today about an issue on the Trail, and I didn't clearly state which Trail. I am talking about the Rail Trail off of Country Club Rd. There is a proliferation of seemingly invasive plants on the first mile or so of the Trail. I thought you would like to know.

Hello!
I am inquiring about two $10 registrations for which I would like a refund. On 8/21 I registered my son for two nature classes that were part of the Junior Rangers program. These were 340002-A and 340002-B. On 9/5 the instructor of the program called me and said (in a voice mail message) that he had info saying my son was registered for a class and that they were "cancelling the program due to lack of enrollment". I inquired once before via the "contact us" portion of the registration website, but this was a couple of weeks ago and have not yet been contacted. I hope this method of contact can lead to the two $10 refunds and a resolution.
Thanks!

4th & B-Line Trial @ Wonderlab
- Case Date:

On the berm of the B-line trail, there is a metal strip that keeps the crushed gravel in place. There is a section of the metal strip that has a gash in it. My wife was running on the trail on Tuesday, February 25. Her shoe caught on the metal gash, which caused her to trip and fall. She sustained severe bruises and cuts. Please repair this damaged metal strip. You can reach out to me at 812-361-4267 if you need additional information. Thank you. Chuck Russo

I can understand if doing a good job plowing the path around the Winslow sports complex is not the city’s top priority although it is extremely popular and it could be even more so if people who normally walk neighborhoods could rely on good snow removal here. But it is an essential connector for bike and pedestrian travel and access to the #4 bus. Please at least try to make it safe to get all the way from Rock Creek to Highland. Right now there are many sections that are just ice.
