"WHERE RANGELEY'S RICH OUTDOOR SPORTING HISTORY MEETS
ITS COMMITMENT TO THE FUTURE!"
After years of dreaming, planning, fund raising and hard work the
dream is a reality!
The Rangeley Outdoor Sporting Heritage Museum in Oquossoc will celebrate its Grand Opening on August 14th on its site

Rangeley’s rich outdoor sporting history,
traditions and personalities come alive in this highly anticipated new
museum located in Oquossoc, the heart of Maine’s fishing and hunting
since the mid 1800’s.
The rustic museum, modeled after a 1900’S taxidermy shop, provides for
the confluence of our history, our present and importantly, our
future. The voices of Carrie Stevens,
Herb Welch,
Fly Rod Crosby and Ed Grant call to
today’s sportsmen and visitors …. to reawaken the sense of adventure
and excitement of a ten-pound wild brook trout, the beauty of a Carrie
Steven’s Gray Ghost Streamer or the lifelike Herb Welch mounted
brook trout.
Now you can become part of this exciting adventure to preserve our
past and help ensure its future.
