My goal is to manage the Village to fiscally allow the cabins to be maintained and to operate as a historical education site for current and future generations on the lifestyle of our pioneers.

Ed Green, KPI Vice President. I am a lifelong resident of Marion County. I have resided in rural Kinmundy for 40 years. My family and I have been living history re-enactors for more than 30 years.

I am a 6th generation Marion County resident with over 40 years of Business Communication, Marketing and Tourism experience.  My vision for the Log Cabin Village is to see the village grow and prosper becoming a major tourist attraction in the Marion County area.  I believe the heart of our organization our 3 V’s; Volunteers, Vendors and Visitors, under the leadership and experience of the board will allow the Village to thrive for future generations.

Nancy Hanna

Hi, I'm Nancy Hanna, KPI Secretary, widowed, and not a native of Kinmundy, but have lived here for 30 years. I am a charter member of the Kinmundy Historical Society. My husband was born and raised here. His younger brother was one of the high schoolers that helped move the cabins to the Village in the 50's & 60's. I have volunteered at the Village for over 10 years. Demonstrating, telling and showing the visitors how physically hard pioneers had to work just to survive is one of my favorite things to do at the Village.

Jeremy Mette

Hello, I’m Jeremy Mette. I have a wife Sarah, who is also on the board for KPI. We have twins, Tucker & McKenna that love the village as much as we do. I take care of our IT, web page and social media accounts. Residing near the Kinmundy area for the last 17 years, the Village has become a big part of my family. What I enjoy the most is watching all the people get so much enjoyment visiting the 19th century cabins. My goal is make the Village known to as many people as possible, so they can experience the joy that everyone gets while visiting Kinmundy Log Cabin Village.

Hi, I'm Deb Wolfe. I was born and raised in Marion County. I’m married and I have 4 children and 3 grandchildren. I enjoyed going to the village every year for the fall festival. When asked if I would be willing to help out I was hesitant but said yes. I’m so glad I did because I enjoy working with the rest of the volunteers to keep the village going. I also love hosting a cabin during the festival and meeting all the wonderful people who come to visit us. It’s a step back in time
