AMS Launches New Day/Night Shade With Slim-Line Extrusions

A new access road connecting Rickwood Caverns State Park to Poplar Road in Alabama has been completed, featuring bike lanes. The project, a partnership with Blount County, aims to provide a more direct route for families, tourists, and RV owners. Additionally, a new accessible playground has opened, replacing one of the oldest in the state park system. The upgrades are part of broader improvements funded by an $85 million bond issue approved by voters in 2022.

A man died in Berkeley, California, in May after contracting leptospirosis while living in a severely rat-infested RV. A woman who lived with him also fell ill but recovered after a lengthy hospitalization. City officials said these are the first human cases of leptospirosis in Berkeley in over a decade. According to the city, the couple had been trapping, feeding and breeding wild rats — though the rats were not kept in cages, and the couple said they did not know how to handle the infestation. Nearly 200 rats were removed from the RV.
