Day 3 | Architecture of Friendship 🏡

“We look to the future with a smile because we see progress everywhere—yes, in building, in land acquisition, in staff development, but most of all where it counts, in human happiness and growth.” - Marian Mullet

This gratitude remains central as the Center celebrates its 30th anniversary and welcomes a future of hope, friendship, and growth🩵

Day 2 | Marian's Inspiring Vision💡

Founding President & CEO Marian Mullet’s favorite Emily Dickinson poem begins: "If I can stop one Heart from breaking, I shall not live in vain." 🕊️

It's the quiet promise she built the Kennedy Willis Center on—and one we still carry into our fourth decade.

A FALL TRADITION! 🍂 The air was crisp, the runners were ready, and the Pathfinder Village Community Trails provided the perfect setting for another exciting multi-school cross-country meet! Congratulations to all the Tri-Valley and MAC League athletes who competed in last evening’s modified and varsity races. 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

Thank you to the coaches, drivers, parents, fans and students who came together to support our local XC teams and create meaningful memories for the young athletes and their families. Participating teams included host team Edmeston/Morris, and teams from Deposit-Hancock, Unadilla Valley-Gilbertsville/Mt. Upton, Sidney, Bainbridge-Guilford/Afton, and Norwich.

“Art is not what you see, but what you make others see.”

The INSPIRE 3 Art Show on Sept. 12 at Dan’s Depot celebrated creativity, connection, and personal expression. Thank you to the artists, guests, and supporters who made this year’s one-day exhibit so memorable.

The featured works were created during regular art classes at Pathfinder Village with teaching artist Colette Dunham, who encourages artists to explore a variety of themes, styles, subjects, lighting, and moods. The resulting pieces may be lyrical, whimsical, nostalgic, or powerful, but they never fail to connect with art lovers.
