CONFERENCE TIME AGAIN!

MARA will hold a Road Conference on Saturday, October 3, 2026 at Gathering Place, a large Venue at Maple Hill Farm Conference Center, again with options for in-person or “Zoom” attendance!  We will begin Registration on July 15 by activating a link to Event Registration.  

Maple Hill Farm Inn is so beautiful. This place has been very well-received by attendees and speakers alike for our previous in-person events in 2020, 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025.

We have some great speakers signed up for this year:

Attorney Mary Denison, from Lake and Denison, Winthrop, is with us again, teamed up this year with another experienced Attorney to present their thoughts on the legal aspects of living on private roads with plenty of time for questions from in-person and Zoom attendees; more to come as we confirm Speakers.

Last year, John Maclaine, Non-Point Source Training Center Coordinator, Maine Department of Environmental Protection, Community services Division, discussed and answered questions on important aspects of road maintenance; and Danielle Marquis, a licensed Independent Insurance Agent with 27 years’ experience, discussed and answered questions on matters relating to insurance for private road associations. 

The MARA Board and Conference Planning Team look forward to joining Members and Non-member Guests for a wonderful, productive experience for everyone involved on Saturday, October 3, 2026 at Gathering Place, Maple Hill Farm Inn and Conference Center.   

Sincerely,

Sandy

Andrew L. Allen, President/Web Administrator
