The new "rumble strips" on the wood walkway are a trip hazard. Solved for the slippery problem but now little kids are falling left and right. Take the screws out. Cover in sand and spray glue. Done.

I am delighted that the two new boardwalks have traction strips. I hope that this one, on the central path, near the rest rooms, will get the strips soon. THIS is the slippery one where I fell and injured my wrist. In a cast and brace for about two months. I uReported all three boardwalks. In response this one was power-washed and I was assured more would be done when Spring came. I hope this report goes through---lately they haven't.

Good afternoon! I've been a user of the Ferguson Dog Park since 2016. I just love this park and the community of people who visit. Myself and many other regulars often walk the perimeter of the Big Dog Area for fitness and to keep the dogs focused on moving. Often times users of the park will stand near the sunshade and their dogs will cluster. The clustering can sometimes cause natural conflicts between dogs. In the past I lived in Waterloo, Ontario, CA. The dog park in Waterloo is called Betchel Park. One of their features of the park was a gravel walking ring specifically for those two reasons I mentioned - good behavior by owners moving, and encouraging health of the owner. See the attached aerial photo. The many of us that walk the interior perimeter of the fencing at Ferguson don't mind the grass but it has it's own hazards of watching where you step. A gravel "trail around the park would encourage healthy behavior among citizens and canines alike. Thank you for listening.
