as of November 2026
As of November 2026, Osceola's park system stands exactly as this section found it: borrowed, county-built, and alive. Inside the line: Penn Park's diamonds under the baseball-softball association, the Moran Elementary fields, and the Olive Street unity garden. On the town's northern line: Baugo Bay, township water by both tested points, its depth the subject of a January 2026 dredging plan the town itself co-sponsors. At the eastern edge, on township ground behind an in-town gate: the 214 acres of Ferrettie/Baugo Creek County Park, opened in 1987 on reclaimed dump land, still growing by donation in 2025, governed by the county parks board under its 2019–2023 master plan, its trails, lake, disc golf course, boat ramp, and innertubing hill in daily seasonal use. No town park board or department exists to succeed any of it. The system's whole history fits this section's frame: custom before law, county before town, and a bay whose saving is the present chapter.
