National Road Museum sets Dec. 14 opening in Boonsboro; ribbon-cutting planned for March 2025
Summary
Reuben Moss told the council Sept. 9 that permit drawings for museum bathrooms have been submitted and that the National Road Museum will officially open Dec. 14, 2024, with a planned ribbon-cutting in March 2025.
The National Road Museum’s vice-president, Reuben Moss, updated the Boonsboro Mayor and Council on Sept. 9 that permit drawings for bathroom renovations have been completed and submitted to the county, with contractor Cronise on standby pending permit approval.
Moss said the museum’s official opening date is Dec. 14, 2024, and a ribbon-cutting ceremony is being planned for March 2025. He indicated the bathroom work had a slight delay but that permit applications are now in process.
Why it matters: the museum opening will add a cultural and tourist attraction to Boonsboro and is tied to other town events and promotion via the Economic Development Commission. A March 2025 ribbon-cutting is planned to provide a broader community celebration.
What comes next: staff and the museum foundation will await county permit approvals and schedule contractor work; the Economic Development Commission and other partners will finalize event logistics.
