• Beginning mid-June, restoration of the main auditorium began. The Dependable Painting Co. of Cleveland, Ohio began restoring the coffered ceiling to its original colors and splendor using various techniques including sponging, mottling, and stenciling. Gold leaf decoration will be re-applied to various art forms such as egg and dart, beading, and leafing. During this time, the original brass and bronze chandeliers were restored to their original beauty. Currently, all of the woodwork and molding in the auditorium is being re-finished to its orignal luster. All stone work including the Corinthian columns have been power washed and cleaned using a baking soda and water solution under pressure. This phase of the work was accomplished by VIP Restoration Co.

The next phase of the process is planned to begin September 26, with the installation of new royal blue carpeting featuring a wreath and medallion design in red and gold. This will complete this year's restoration of Stambaugh Auditorium's Concert Hall. Plans to refurbish the seating within the concert hall to a royal blue, complementary to the newly installed carpeting are aimed for the summer of 2005. Fund-raising to begin shortly.

• Each year the auditorium is host to Williamsburg Christmas, a top class craft show put on by the Boardman-Poland junior Women’s League, the Saturday and Sunday before Thanksgiving. Crafters in colonial dress and special holiday decorations make this weekend one that tour groups attend regularly. A colonial restaurant and a lunch counter make spending a day at the Williamsburg Christmas easy.

• Throughout the year, weddings and wedding receptions are weekly happenings in the building. From small to very large gatherings each couple gives the hall a special look on their very special day.
