Build community through supporting events

One of Mapleton City’s new core values is connection. In Mapleton’s earliest days, the founding settlers connected over their shared resources in the community’s Unity Garden. Through the course of several generations, Mapleton residents have maintained connection by continuing to gather as a community at city-hosted events.

Whether playing in a tournament at the new pickleball courts, roasting chestnuts on an open fire in the Historic Old Towne Square, or watching a dazzling fireworks show on the 24th of July, these gatherings continue to foster connection and a strengthened sense of community.

Mapleton City expresses sincere appreciation for all who made 2022’s city events possible. Each event was bigger and better than ever before, and we hope to continue that trajectory. From the monetary and in-kind donations received to the many volunteer hours spent making each event possible and residents’ event attendance and feedback, each individual contribution to these gather- ings enhanced participants’ experience in connecting with each other and making memories with their families.

A special thank you goes to the Title Sponsors of the 2022 Pioneer Days Celebration for their generosity and partnership: Trapnell Orthodontics, Coin Crazy, Maple Mountain Insurance, Quick Quack Car Washes and Spanish Fork Hospital. Thanks also go to the Mapleton Youth City Council for its members’ ongoing service and support of each city event.

In preparation for upcoming events, facilitating connection remains a top priority. Mapleton City is seeking event partners to help fulfill this mission. No contribution is too small, and every effort helps create the best community experiences possible.

As the city continues to expand its communication channels, advertising opportunities are increasingly more available through these event partnerships. From the annual Pioneer Days magazine mailed to nearly 4,000 households to social media promotion, physical banners and signage, the city strives for these partnerships to be mutually beneficial for all involved.

If you would like to help facilitate community connection at an upcoming Mapleton City event by donating your time, goods, services or monetary resources, please email mwilson@mapleton.org to discuss specific ways to get involved.
