<!-- A little wizardry here. We wanted to subgroup the trails list. Wanted to list the "Trail System" defined MB trails separately. Unfortunately there is no way to ask for a property undefined. Instead did array operations. (All Trails)-(MB Trails)=(Trails not part of system). Could have just done listed trail names, but it would need updating with trail name changes (unlikely).

The "Overflow Campground" is currently being renovated for previously announced RV friendly sites including site sewer. Work began in December 2020.
 
A Hammock campground was added late 2020, presumably for reservation starting in 2021. It appears to be hammock only.

The park name is "plural possessive." It is the path of multiple Warriors.
 
In 2019 a major renovation program was announced by the park as part of a $6 million program. Renovations include upgrading the water main, building a new marina with dock and covered slips, transforming the recreation hall on Duck Island into the park headquarters and visitors center, and modify the overflow campground to be better suited to modern large RV's. Work is expected to begin in 2020. No statement of completion time frame.
