More than 20 volunteers gathered Sunday morning to plant 10 new trees across three parks in Oak Bluffs — Niantic, Nashawena and Viera.

Competition will come second to community at the first annual Boys and Girls Jamboree basketball tournament this Saturday, hosted by the Martha's Vineyard Boys and Girls Club.

The basketball courts at Niantic Park in Oak Bluffs were closed this week amid concerns about people violating rules to prevent unsafe crowding.

The children’s playground at Niantic Park is now open after a major renovation.

After more than three years of planning, a year of construction and a fair share of financial stress, Niantic Park in Oak Bluffs will be fully open to the public within a matter of weeks.

Work is almost done on a $819,000 overhaul project at Niantic Park. Beginning Wednesday, hundreds of volunteers will take part in a five-day build to complete a separate, privately-funded children's playground.

For the first time in more than five decades, there will be no basketball in Niantic Park this summer due to major renovations planned for the popular Oak Bluffs hangout. Construction is slated to begin mid-April.
