Photo from the destruction of the water fountain at Lingle Park – police are asking for the public’s help in identifying the individuals.DAUPHIN COUNTY, Pa. — Officials hope a new $100,000 camera surveillance system in Lower Paxton Township's five largest public parks will deter vandalism.

The camera security system was funded through an $80,000 grant from the Pennsylvania Department of Economic and Community Development and $20,000 from federal funding received during the pandemic. "You take for granted that it seems like a minor repair, but it adds up," said Rachelle Scott, the Lower Paxton Township Parks and Recreation Director."This is a public facility, and we want it to be used by everyone.”

Park improvement projects done by the township in the past year include re-doing the basketball courts at Brightbill and new bathrooms, building Central Pennsylvania’s first cricket pitch in Lingle Park, and upgrading the basketball and tennis courts at Forest Hills Park.
