New Branding for Maupin Daze
With all the positive energy and changes afoot in our community, we decided this was a good time to refresh the branding for our annual community celebration. The bright blue and yellow Maupin Daze fish has been replaced with a design featuring our iconic bridge and the swallows that love to nest there. The larger graphic will be used for banners along Deschutes Ave.
2023 Events
While we are on the topic of events, please be sure to let us know about any events you have planned so we can add them to our MACC Events Calendar. In-person events are definitely cool again and its great to see the comeback of familiar events and new ones popping up, too. We look forward to finding out what you have in the works! Our new website (which will launch in April) will allow you to submit your events directly, but in the meantime, please send the info our way and we will post and share! One event that is back after a covid hiatus is the Lincoln Powwow at the Simnasho Longhouse, happening this weekend, February 10-12th.
Maupin Area Visitors Directory
Submit your Business Description!
Work continues on the Maupin Area Visitors Directory and we want to invite you all to craft a statement of 100 words or less to be used for your business description. We have made this easy with a google form! Complete it HERE. The deadline is March 6th.

We are also brainstorming ways for our member business listings to be optimized in the directory. Please fill out the poll below to give your feedback on this.

If you could choose only one, would you prefer a QR code or photo to go with your listing?
