TIMONIUM, MD. — Baltimore-area residents are invited to visit the newest Woodcraft store, located at 15 W. Aylesbury Rd., Suite 700, in Timonium, Maryland. Owners Pres Viator and Laura Callihan opened the new location on Monday, October 16, at 9 a.m.

Woodcraft Retail & Franchise Operations Vice President Andrew V. Bondi marked the occasion: “We are pleased to announce Store 588 in Baltimore, Maryland, is open for business. Over the past two weeks, Pres and his crew worked hand in hand with multiple Woodcraft team members to transform an empty space into a woodworker’s paradise.”

The store is located conveniently east of Route 83 and north of Route 695, a quicker drive than woodworkers in the area previously faced when traveling to Rockville or Harrisburg. “We’re really excited to offer woodworkers in northern Maryland and southern Pennsylvania a place to get all of their tools, lumber, and supplies,” said Laura Callihan, who like her husband is a geologist. “Pres is a hobby woodworker who loves the Woodcraft brand. We opened the store because we were looking for something different. It is a family affair—our kids, Nathaniel,8, and Clara, 6, even agreed to work for snacks. We’re looking forward to making our family a part of the local woodworking community.”
