These rules are in place to help continue to keep Island Grove safe and enjoyable for our entire community. The Abington Police Department will be conducting routine patrols to ensure the safety, security, and preservation of this valuable public space.
We ask for everyone’s cooperation in respecting these hours and guidelines.
Thank you for your attention to this important matter.
