Warren Township recently completed the repair of two basketball courts near the municipal complex, with new surfaces just waiting for players.

But it didn't take long for someone to trash them up, according to Recreation Director Eleanora Hermann. 

"It's a shame. Yesterday the people who played left their drinking bottles on the ground when the cans were a foot away," she said. Hermann added soda spills and silly string cover areas of the courts.

The township is hoping residents will help keep an eye out for the courts—"like a Neighborhood Watch," Hermann said. 

"The Township Committee and Recreation Commission are doing their best to improve the recreation areas in town, we need your help to keep them nice," she said.

Help keep the courts—and all public areas in Warren—clean by picking up litter.

And who's the jerk?
