Hello,
I activated US-3140 Sand Bar State Park in VT. However, this park comes up as Unknown Park on POLO.
How can this be fixed?
Thank you!

its showing up on mine.
March '25 release (25.3.2)
The selection list is created via the live api call. The name in the operation is filled from the last downloaded parklist. With new parks there is a time difference between the live and downloaded cv file.
Bottom line:
it does NOT cause any issue other than cosmetic for the period of your activation. You know the name and the park number is correct and is all that is used for the log submission.
So you can ignore it or not let it worry you. Or you can remove and reselect the park later when it may be in the list which has been updated and downloaded.

Thank you for your input. As I am new to POTA and POLO, I just wanted to be sure I wasn’t missing something in my activation and logging. My activation was back in February and there have been a couple of app updates since then. And as I am still seeing the park as unknown, I thought I would report it.

ok it’s a cosmetic issue that may be addressed soon.
In the meantime, if you want to see the name, you need to de-select (remove it completely) it from the operation and then re-select it again.
This is assuming you have updated the POTA parks list in the meantime.
Alan
Thank you. That works!
Removed the park and then put in back in again.

Yeah, the name on the operation is only updated when you change something, so if you did not have downloaded data at the time you created it, it will not update when you download data later.
You have to do as you did, remove the park and add it again.
I have this particular issue in my list of things to look into, but it’s not the highest priority.
Great Thanks for your effort!
