Testimonials

“The Southern Tier Community Center has been an essential partner in the growth of Introspection Independent Winterguard for the 2022 season. Their facility has one of the best Gymnasiums in the southern tier. The staff is always extremely friendly and welcoming to all our performers and staff. Pat always goes out of his way to assist with any of our special requests.

When we wanted to have a parent preview show the community center went out of their way to allow us to do so. One of their staff members even came to watch and support the kids.

Without the Southern Tier Community Centers partnership we wouldn't have been able to even have a 2022 season. I strongly recommend working with the community center.”

Director Introspection Independent Winterguard, Inc.

"TWIN TIER ELITE would like to thank the Southern Tier Community Center (STCC) for their support over the past couple of years during the COVID pandemic.

The opportunity to rent gym space for practices at the STCC for our multiple girl basketball teams has contributed to our success as a growing organization. Using the gym and working with the STCC has been a great experience for our TWIN TIER ELITE players, parents and coaches.

Patrick Harnan and staff at STCC, have always been very supportive and attentive to our needs. Thanks again to everyone at STCC for your support over the past couple of years, we greatly appreciate it!"
