Cherry Hill Plans Beechwood Pickleball Courts, Four More At Challenge Grove

Cherry Hill Township plans to add pickleball courts at Beechwood. The planned courts would give local players another place to serve, volley and compete. The Beechwood courts were originally conceived as part of a larger push to bring pickleball to Cherry Hill. Back in February, thesunpapers.com reported that the township planned to build a total of eight new pickleball courts, with four slated for Beechwood Avenue and four more planned for Challenge Grove Park. That report placed the Beechwood courts at the former Hinchman School site near Beechwood Avenue and Route 38, while a separate account from eu.courierpostonline.com described the township courts as being built at Beechwood and Poplar avenues — the two reports differ on the exact cross street.

As election season rises, so do ads, and teens have something to say

Mixed opinions are shared by local teens about the campaign messages in the 2026 elections, but with one unified opinion that the sheer volume is unnecessary and confusing. The hallmark of any election season is the inescapable flood of advertising from TV to social media to mail. However, much of this advertising ends up unintentionally targeting teens who, while making up 12% of the population, cannot vote.
