The Maupin Area Chamber Endowment has received a $10,000 community project grant from the Cycle Oregon Fund. The money will go toward developing a multi-purpose athletic facility at South Wasco County High School in Maupin to replace the current track. The complex would include track and field facilities, a football field, and related spectator facilities that will accommodate a wide range of uses. The National Guard is planning in the spring of 2020 to level and add fill to the site with a goal of constructing by 2021. The project is on the Wasco County Economic Development Committee’s top ten ranking of community enhancement projects.
