Timothy Center
Description
The Timothy Center is a camp and retreat center on Tom Riley's farm where kids and others come to have fun. It is named after Tom's late son Timothy Riley .
History
The Timothy Center was created by Tom Riley in response to the discovery of his son Timothy Riley's journal under the floorboards of the cabin on his farm in #406: “Malachi's Message, Part 1”. The center's opening retreat was held on March 6, 1999 in #418: “Opening Day”.
The Shepards have lived and worked at the center since their arrival in #418: “Opening Day”. Aubrey, however, has since moved away to college.
In #812: “Legacy, Part 2”, it was established that after the death of Tom, the Timothy Center along with Tom's far sat abandoned for a while. In the episode after Eugene, Whit, and Connie were willed parts of the farm as enforced by Tom's sister, Rebecca Clemmens, she briefly contemplated selling the property. However, after testing running a presentation with the Westcott family, they decided to re-open the Timothy Center as a performance venue. It has since continued to be used for events and retreats, like the A Day in the Life convention in #973: “Extended Cut”.
