A Presentation by Kim Harvish on the history of The Conkling Center, formerly The Glens Falls Home. In 1897 leading members of five area churches in the village of Glens Falls met to discuss the possibility of creating a residence for elderly women. In 1899 Mary Conkling offered her home and property at the corner of Warren and McDonald Streets for the first Glens Falls Home. The “Home” opened on June 26, 1899.

This program will be Zoom only as an alternative to bad weather conditions. To be decided that week.
