Westwood Park continued target for Little Chalfont youths
A gang of youngsters are continuing to run amok in Little Chalfont again targeting Westwood Park spreading graffiti and intimidating residents.
Now mindless intruders have kicked their way the sports pavilion at Westwood Park off Elizabeth Avenue, causing several hundred pounds worth of damage.
The self styled Elizabeth Avenue Goonz, who have seemingly claimed responsibility for the crime, having daubed this logo on the front door to the pavilion, are one Little Chalfont gangs who have been making life hell for residents in and around the pavilion.
There has been under aged drinking, intimidating behaviour, and even the possibility of drug taking in and around Westwood Park.
Having burst their way into the pavilion, the unknown intruders tore up carpet, damaged the showers, and chairs, internally, leaving an awful mess for Little Chalfont parish clerk Janet Mason and her staff.
Police were called in immediately and now the council is reappraising plans to spend £10,000 on beautifying the four dressing room structure which dates back to the 1950s.
Mrs Mason, in post at Little Chalfont for just under a year, said: "It is a real concern what is going on in and around Elizabeth Avenue.
"I feel very sorry for people down there but we are going ahead with plans for seeking special orders that would enable the police to confiscate drink from those suspected of under age drinking."
Mrs Mason said she had approached workmen to board up the pavilion and she was currently involved in reconsidering just what current parish council priorities are with regard to the pavilion.
"I am disappointed with this latest turn of events and so are the councillors, but we are not going to give up, " said Mrs Mason.
Yobs have repeatedly plastered the outside of the building with graffiti but this is the first time anyone has got into the building, said the clerk.

I feel sorry for these poor children. It's pretty obvious to me that they are bored, and have nowhere to go in the evenings. Instead of wasting £10,000 on this, why not invest in a nice Youth Club for the youngsters to go to? There, they can mix with their peers, and have a nice game of pool, rather than allowing boredom to dictate their behaviour. It makes perfect sense to me.
