Hosted with a clear vision, the gathering was centered around a shared mission: saving the future by preserving the past.Inspired by Jim Thorpe, the legendary athlete whose Potawatomi name Wa-Tho-Huk translates to "Bright Path Lit By Lightning," the event perfectly reflected Preservan's journey of innovation, swift growth and strong community impact."We're building something lasting," said Preservan Founder&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/tymcbrideokc?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=preservan-celebrates-first-ever-brightpath-gathering-lighting-the-way-for-community-and-sustainability-2728975" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Ty McBride</a>. "When we started this business, it was about helping neighbors, friends and family. This gathering is an extension of that commitment — coming together not as mere business owners, but as community stewards united by a higher purpose."The BrightPath Gathering emphasized&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/preservan/a-rare-chance-to-join-a-category-creator-why-preservans-eco-smart-wood-repair-franchise-is-one-of-2024s-most-exciting-home-service-businesses-2724713">Preservan’s unique mission</a> of environmental stewardship, community engagement and innovative solutions for wood rot repair. Franchisees from across the country shared insights, best practices and stories of the tangible impacts their services have made."Our neighbors aren't just customers," McBride said. "When you're accountable to the people you see every day — in grocery stores, at local events, around the neighborhood — it fundamentally changes how you operate. It brings a deeper sense of purpose and responsibility to everything we do."<a href="http://1851franchise.com/preservan/info">Preservan</a> stands apart in the home services industry by prioritizing repair over replacement, significantly reducing both cost and environmental waste through its&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/preservan/10-faqs-about-preservan-2727730">specialized 100% epoxy solutions</a>.

"Our goal is not just to provide a service but to transform lives and neighborhoods, preserving the built environment to safeguard our natural environment."Attendees were reminded that Preservan’s approach goes beyond typical business practices, rooted in authentic, hands-on participation. "There’s no distant CEO behind a desk here — we’re all mixing epoxy and getting our hands dirty," McBride said. "Everyone in our network is deeply involved because this isn’t just a business. It’s a collective mission." Brianna Miles, the franchise owner behind&nbsp;<a href="https://preservan.com/locations/emerald-coast/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=preservan-celebrates-first-ever-brightpath-gathering-lighting-the-way-for-community-and-sustainability-2728975" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Preservan Emerald Coast</a>, which serves Pensacola, Destin and Panama City, agrees that Bright Path was an incredible opportunity to build connections, share business strategies, and add to the technical toolbox as a collective Preservan brand.“Having dedicated time and space to collaborate with other Preservan franchisees is invaluable,” said Miles. “Ty and the whole franchise headquarters team made sure every moment of our time, as owners, was purposeful and could immediately be actioned upon once we returned back to our home bases!”Looking forward, the BrightPath Gathering marked just the beginning of&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/preservan/why-preservan-is-limiting-franchises-in-2025-2728542#stories">Preservan’s plans for the future</a>.
