Living in Woburn my entire life, I know it fairly well. Here's all things you need to learn about this amazing city! (well maybe not "everything")

Being only about 10 miles from Boston, people from Woburn can easily visit Boston for sporting events, trips to historical places, and to just walk the city, and Anderson Station in Woburn makes it so much easier! Dropping off right in TD Garden, it's an easy way to have a great time in the city!
B- Bill and Bob's Roast Beef
A classic hangout that has been a Woburn staple for decades! It's a great place to hangout, but the food is the real reason you come to enjoy so make sure you go on an empty stomach!

H- Horn Pond
Get some fresh air, take a walk, and enjoy the sun and other people while walking around the pond! If you're adventurous take a walk up Horn Pond mountain and you can see an amazing view of Boston! The number one rule of Horn Pond is that it is pronounced "Hond pond."
I- Ice Rinks
The O'Brien rink, attached to the Joyce Middle school, has been a great place to cheer on Woburn's Hockey teams and have free skate time! Woburn also has the half- size rink, Holland Arena, that can be rented to have some fun with friends!J- John Travolta
John Travolta starred in "A Civil Action," a true story based on a book written by Jonathan Harr. They both cover the true story of water contamination in Woburn during the 1980's.
K- Knocked Down, But Not Forgotten
In March 2016, Woburn center's TurfTime had a fire which damaged the neighboring stores and ultimately lead to the entire strip of buildings being torn down. Betty Reagan's Cousin's Restaurant was one of them and had been there for decades and will be missed.
