Request a Boot Brush Station
HIP is making boot brush stations accessible at trailheads across Hamilton County. If your park or publicly accessible natural area would like to be considered for a HIP boot brush station, please complete the form below.
This program is for Hamilton County (Indiana) parks and publicly accessible natural areas only. Submitting the form does not guarantee a station. Requests will be reviewed by the HIP education committee on a rolling basis and stations will be awarded as funding and supply allows.
You can request multiple stations for one property/trail through this form. If you are requesting stations at different properties, please submit a form for each property. Questions? Email
[email protected]
.
This form should be filled out by the property owner or manager, not the general public. If you'd like to see a boot brush station at a nearby park, contact the park manager and suggest they request a station.

Additional info -- what makes this a great location for a boot brush station? High visibility/use? Invasive species issues? Pristine and we want to keep it that way?
*
If selected, you would receive the boot brush sign structure and sign, boot brush, and associated installation hardware free of charge. You would be expected to install the station within 4 weeks of receiving it and maintain the station in perpetuity including replacing the boot brush as needed as bristles wear out.
