🚗 Parking Reminder — Youth Sports at the Becker School Athletic Fields

Youth sports season is in full swing, and it's great to see so many families out supporting our young athletes! With the extra activity around the fields off 3rd Street SE, we want to share a quick reminder to help keep the area safe and accessible for everyone.

When attending games and practices, please keep two things in mind:

🚫 No parking on the east side of 3rd Street SE — the shoulder that runs alongside the fields is a posted no-parking zone.
🚫 The Kolbinger Park parking lot is not available for school or sporting-event parking.

✅ Please use the designated school parking lots when attending events.

We understand parking can get tight during busy events, and we truly appreciate your patience and cooperation. These restrictions aren't just about the rules — vehicles parked along the no-parking shoulder create safety hazards for players and pedestrians and can block access for emergency vehicles.

Our officers will continue to monitor the area during events. Vehicles parked in posted no-parking zones may be issued citations, so we ask everyone to plan ahead and park in an approved lot.

Thank you for helping us keep practices and game days safe and enjoyable for our athletes, families, and neighbors. Go Bulldogs! 🐾

🛡️ A Safe Community Is a Shared Accomplishment

We're proud to share that the City of Becker has been named the 10th Safest City in Minnesota for 2026 by SafeWise.

This recognition is based on FBI violent and property crime data — and Becker's results stand out. Our community climbed 30 spots in the statewide rankings this year and was one of only two Minnesota cities to reduce both violent and property crime year over year.

Rankings like this don't happen by chance. They reflect residents who look out for one another, community partners who stay engaged, and the dedicated members of the Becker Police Department who serve this city every day.

Thank you, Becker. It's an honor to serve and protect a community this special.

Yesterday we teamed up with with Becker, MN Fire Department and Sherburne County Sheriff's Office for some fun educational time in the park with local in-home daycare providers. The kids got to hear from some speakers, see equipment demos and check out our vehicles. Each of these providers have a special skillset and we appreciate the time they invest in our children and community.
