The Miracle on Main Street parade scheduled for Saturday, November 24th, 2018 in Westminster has been cancelled. Unfortunately due to the worsening forecast we have cancelled the Miracle on Main Street Parade.

There is no rain date for this parade.

The Jingle Bell Run will have a modified run route at 4:55 PM.

The annual tree lighting will still occur at 6 PM in Locust Lane, with a modified ceremony. Right after the tree is lit for the season join us at the Westminster Library for free crafts & games and a visit with Mr. and Mrs. Claus.

According to the US National Weather Service Baltimore/Washington, “The Winter Weather Advisory has been expanded further east to include most areas west of I-95. Rain will affect the region starting early Sat. Temps will be cold enough for areas west of the I-95 corridor to experience wintry precipitation which may cause travel difficulties.”

The City of Westminster Historic District Commission announces the 2008 Historic Westminster Holiday House Tour


The City of Westminster Historic District Commission, in conjunction with The Carroll County Historical Society, is sponsoring the 2008 Historic Westminster Holiday House Tour to be held on Saturday, December 6, 2008 from 3:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. in the historic West End Neighborhood of Westminster.


The mission of the tour is to promote and display the historic nature of Westminster’s older neighborhoods while building community through the strengthening of relationships and resources.


In accordance with this mission, McDaniel College and 14 homeowners from the West End Neighborhood will open their doors to share their own holiday celebrations with neighbors near and far. Live performances from local musical groups will add additional local flavor to the celebration.


These performances include: Carroll County’s Children’s Chorus, Westminster Municipal Band, and Winters Mill Vocal Ensemble, to name a few.


All of the West End Neighborhood homes on the tour were built between the 1840’s and the 1940’s, and this year’s tour will feature a special look inside the President’s House at McDaniel College, built in 1889.


The $10 ticket price ($12 at the door) includes access to all 14 homes as well as the Little Baker Chapel, the Harrison House, and the President’s House at McDaniel College.

Tour-goers will receive a tour booklet, special offers from downtown restaurants, and refreshments at the Harrison House.

A shuttle service between houses is also available. Tickets for the tour are available at Westminster City Offices at 56 West Main Street, Carroll Arts Center and selected businesses in downtown Westminster.


Guests are encouraged to continue the community celebration of the holidays in Westminster on December 6, 2008 with several other family friendly events: Starting with a visit with Santa on Locust Lane from noon to 4 p.m., enjoy the talents of your community at the “Festival of Wreaths” at the Carroll Arts Center from 10 a.m. until 8 p.m. followed by the music of the Pennsylvania Opry at the “Country Gospel & Christmas Show” with shows at 3 p.m. and 7 p.m.

Finish your evening with a stroll down Main Street to visit local Downtown shops open late during “Starlight Shopping” until 10:00 p.m.


For more information, please contact Tim Rogers at 410-848-4628.
