In a recent post on the Town of Paoli’s Facebook page, officials highlighted growing concerns over littering incidents at the Community Park playground. According to the town’s statement, the playground—built through the dedication of numerous volunteers and generous community donations—has seen an increase in trash scattered throughout the area. Town representatives emphasized the importance of keeping the park clean, noting that trash bins are readily available for visitors to use.

Officials further reminded residents that food and drinks are prohibited within the playground, encouraging those bringing refreshments to use designated picnic areas instead. The town has expressed that if the issue persists, it may have to consider the option of closing the playground to preserve the area’s condition for all park visitors.
