Osseo Parks are Tobacco-Free

Osseo recently joined many other cities, counties, and districts that are tobacco-free. The City Council approved its Outdoor Parks and Recreational Facilities Tobacco-Free Policy at the June 13, 2011, Council meeting. This means there should be NO tobacco use of any kind in either Sipe Park or Boerboom Park in Osseo. Signs have been posted stating the parks are Tobacco-Free. 

Boerboom Veterans Park

Located at Central Avenue and 4th Street in downtown Osseo, Henry J. Boerboom Veterans Memorial Park offers a bandshell where concerts and performances are held during the summer months, along with movies and music in the park on Tuesday evenings throughout the summer. To learn more about reserving the Bandshell, visit https://www.discoverosseo.com/facilities/parks-and-trails/

The park is shaded, has picnic tables, and is beautifully landscaped. Large monuments commemorate area residents who have served in several wars. Boerboom Park is directly east across the street from City Hall and is located at 416 Central Avenue, Osseo.
