Spend the Day in Boalsburg this Memorial Day

Boalsburg is just minutes from State College and Beaver Stadium, but the quaint village feels worlds away. Originally a traveler’s stop between Pittsburgh and Philadelphia, Boalsburg is one of the best places to uncover history in Central Pennsylvania, with the Pennsylvania Military Museum, Boal Mansion and Columbus Chapel, and Boalsburg Cemetery, which commemorates the village’s designation as the Birthplace of Memorial Day in Pennsylvania. It’s also a place for today, with can’t-miss events, brand-new venues, and favorite family destinations. Let’s spend the day!
