Pavilion Project Groundbreaking  Excavation for Pathways' new pavilion and walkway will take place later this month.  The staff and Board members of Pathways are excited to see this long awaited building project begin!  

August 17 Work Event  Before the excavators can get to work, a portion of existing brick walkway needs to be removed.  There will be a work time on Saturday, August 17 at 9am to remove the bricks.  We'd love to have many volunteers come and make light work of it!  If you can join us, please complete this short survey.
