It would be helpful if the volunteers or the Corps of Engineers would rake up the gumballs. Somebody could twist their ankle on al the gumballs

Someone was in my spot but the host and a Ranger helped me find a new spot without the any confrontation. They both used some common sense and my kids appreciated that.
