Tommy the Turtle is the pride and joy of Boissevain. Standing over 28 feet tall, Tommy the Turtle was completed in 1974 and has been a symbol of the community ever since.

With an American flag in one hand and a Canadian flag in the other, Tommy represents Boissevain’s proximity to the United States border. Tommy Turtle is a great photo opportunity for all!
