Dan Gable Museum prepares for $1.4 million renovation
WATERLOO, Iowa – The National Wrestling Hall of Fame Dan Gable Museum is going to undergo a $1.4 million renovation and will be better than ever, but it is going to require closing the facility for four months.
The museum will close on Monday, August 6, to begin preparations for the renovation, which is scheduled to begin on September 1 and be completed by Dec. 15.
The project will transform the facility into a state-of-the-art museum with interactive displays. It will also expand the wrestling room, teaching center and theater, providing more opportunities for youth wrestlers to practice and receive instruction.
