Map of the Heritage Trail

How long is the Heritage Trail?

The current length is 3/4 mile.

How wide is the Heritage Trail?

Width of trail is 10 foot with 1′ gravel burm on both sides.

What kind of surface is it?

The surface is paved with asphalt.

The grade varies from 6% to 10%. Can be challenging for most users. Remainder of the Heritage Trail will be much lesser grade.

Who can use it?

Your Heritage Trail system is for non-motorized modes of transportation I.e., Walking, running, bicycles. Because of hill grade this section of the trail is NOT recommended for inline skates, skate boards.

Who owns the Heritage Trail?

A core group of private citizens has created the Heritage Trail. Future plans are to have City of Madison Parks Department take over the reins. The parks department will be overseeing the maintenance day to day issues and at the same time the same core group will still help with the future of the Heritage Trail.

On the Madison State Hospital grounds. You may view this map to aid you.

How can I help?

We are always going to need your help as workers who like to get there hands dirty doing projects like planting vegetation along trail, light construction, etc. Or if you wish to help as paper pusher that is always a need. You may contact Tom Pritchard at 812-273-6266 or email

What are your next plans?

By the year 2004 plans are to open an extension of the Heritage Trail that would extend when completed from downtown Madison to Clifty Falls State Park on the hilltop. Approximate distance will be 3 1/2 miles. Other areas the Heritage Trail will connect to are: Rucker’s Sports Complex, Lide White Boys & Girls Club, B3 Park, Jefferson County Health Department and The Madison State Hospital Regional Center.

Where do I start in the downtown area?

At this present time the lower portion of Heritage Trail comes to a dead end. Sorry for this inconvenience. Trail committee has been working hard to establish temporary route. This issue is still being worked out at this time.

Fashion Logistics from Beginning to End

Fashion
logistics
is defined as the management of fashion apparel and accessories from
the beginning point of origin to the point of destination. A company
that provides order fulfillment and logistics will attach a stamped
bar code to each product that is readied for shipment so that it can
be tracked with the use of the tracking number encoded on the bar
code. This allows companies who want to store their merchandise in
strategically placed warehouses, where their orders will be received,
picked, pulled and shipped to their customers, to do so with the
assistance of an order fulfillment service.

Important Clean Room Supplies

A clean room is needed for many different uses. A clean room is most commonly used for scientific research, pharmacies, or manufacturing. The clean room is designed to have a very small amount of environmental pollutants which is very important for many different areas of work. With the many rules and regulations concerning the clean room, you will need to do a lot of research. You also need to purchase multiple pieces of cleanroom supplies. You can look through everything that we have to offer here.

There are actually many different clean room products that you will be able to choose from. Cleanroom gloves are one of the most important types of cleanroom supplies that you will purchase. These gloves are very special and cannot be purchased in a normal store regardless of popular belief. This is due to the fact that these gloves are actually made in a clean room which provides you with gloves that have absolutely no contamination.

Clean room masks are another very important product. These are made so that they will protect you and the room from any germs or contamination. The masks are very breathable and come in a few different styles, so you will have a lot to choose from. You can even request free samples in order to find a style that is a good fit for you.

We also have a nice selection of clean room wipes. Though these may seem pointless to some, they are actually something you really need in your clean room. These wipes are lint free which means you can clean things without risking any contamination.

We also have many other products that are just as important. Some of these include swabs, paper and pens, tape, hoods, packaging, and so much more. It is very important that you have enough supplies to last.
