Getting a New Face

Jul. 4, 2013

 

Thanks to the Eagle Scout project of local Boy Scout Troop 22 member A.J. Savopoulos, the 1950s B&O caboose at the Oakland B&O Railroad Station/Museum, the color of the car has been restored to its original red. His project will be completed in time for the grand opening of the Oakland B&O Railroad Museum, scheduled for Saturday, July 20, beginning at 1 p.m. Individuals, government agencies, and organizations that have been instrumental in this long-awaited opening will be represented at the ceremony, with Oakland Mayor Peggy Jamison serving as mistress of ceremonies. Appointed by the Oakland mayor and town council four years ago, an ad hoc committee partnered with the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Museum in Baltimore to transform Oakland’s 1884 station into a railroad museum. Chaired by former mayor Asa McCain, the committee consisted of 25 members, and there are 20 volunteers who help operate the museum on Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday each week. The ribbon-cutting will take place at the front door of the museum immediately following speaker presentations. Tom Biery, president of the Western Maryland Chapter of the National Railway Historical Society, will present a 30-minute digital slide program at 3 p.m. highlighting the B&O Railroad freight and passenger operation history in the Oakland area. His presentation will take place in the baggage room, which is now a learning center and theater. The learning center has state-of-the-art equipment recommended by Crellin Elementary School principal Dana McCauley and Craig Trautwein, also with the board of education. The Baltimore & Ohio Museum in Baltimore has exhibits in the Oakland B&O Museum, and the committee has added additional B&O exhibits and artifacts on loan and gifted by local residents. The B&O Museum will complement the Garrett County Historical Museum and Transportation Museum of Garrett County/Deep Creek Lake Gallery. Oakland’s station, which is on the National Registry of Historical Places, has received a $400,000 upgrade and restoration last year. The public is invited to attend the grand opening event.

Retire Here, Not There: Maryland – Oakland top 5 in state

Oakland

Tucked away in the northwestern corner of Maryland, Oakland is a tiny town with outsize opportunities for outdoor activities. Oakland abuts the 3,900-acre Deep Creek Lake, the largest lake in Maryland. The lake is used for recreation year-round, with ice fishing and cross-country skiing in the winter (the average ice thickness is 18 inches); fishing, canoeing and kayaking in the spring, fall and summer; and swimming and tubing (a favorite with the grandkids) in the hotter months.

Oakland is also within minutes of Wisp Resort, which has 132 acres of ski terrain, and five golf courses. It’s home to Adventure Sports Center International, which has a mountaintop white-water rapids course (one of the few in the world) and is the official venue for the 2014 Canoe Slalom World Championships.

All this outdoor recreation comes with a reasonable price tag: The cost of living is roughly average for the country, compared with 20% higher than average statewide, and the median home costs just over $130,000. That said, the town is tiny, with few restaurants or other amenities, and it takes a good 2½ hours to reach the nearest major international airport, in Pittsburgh. More here.

Mainstreet Matters – Oakland Maryland

Marta at deepcreektimes.com linked a note to this the other day and I agree that its worth nominating Oakland as a potential community for painting from Benjamin Moore.Reading through the comments, you can see a lot of Oaklanders have already nominated Oakland – we have a fair shot of winning! How great would that be? Spend a few minutes and say some great things about Oakland here.

Here is what the project is all about:

“It’s the place where your banker recognizes you by name, shopkeepers are willing to open early for you, and where you catch up with friends at your favorite coffee shop.

Since 1883, our network of local retailers has been an integral part of the communities we serve. Main Street is a part of all our histories, which is why we should all take care of them, preserve them, and work to keep their businesses thriving.

That’s why Benjamin Moore is committed to repainting 20 main streets across the U.S. and Canada- a program we call “Main Street Matters.” We’ll be completing all of the projects over the next year with the help of local Benjamin Moore retailers and painting contractors.” More here.
