An emotional girl with a gun, a whole lotta guns!

More than 16 years ago the Oregon Military Museum (near Clackamas/Camp Withycombe-Happy Valley) shutdown for renovations.  The museum is expected to reopen during the Summer of 2025, a year later than originally planned.

In January 2025, final work was being completed for the weapons display.

Kathleen Sligar, Director/Curator of the Oregon Military Museum, talks about the final preparations for the weapons display in this video report, via Oregon National Guard’s First Sergeant Zachary Holden, released 29JAN2025:

Despite being closed for renovations, special tours were conducted for veterans organizations.

The museum has outdoor displays that visitors can view.
