West Boylston, Massachusetts is a very unique community. It is a small town where everybody knows someone nearby. It's an old town, having just celebrated it's bicentennial, that's full of relics from the town's past, such as the Old Stone Church and the historic district of Oakdale.

Of the many things unique to West Boylston, one notable place is the Pride Park Playground by the elementary school. The playground was redesigned a couple years ago to make the experience at the park even more enjoyable. The park features swing sets, a jungle gym, a basketball court, and a separate playground for younger children.
