MAPA Events

MAPA was founded on our in-person educational events. We're dedicated to offering

a wide range of learning and networking opportunities, focusing on relevant topics that

motivate our members to be local life enrichment leaders.

We believe that connecting with other activities professionals in a welcoming and

supportive community is essential to our members' growth and success. Our goal is for

you to enjoy yourself while expanding your knowledge and adding valuable tools to your

professional toolkit.

MAPA holds at least five in-person educational sessions annually, where members can earn up to 12 CEUs. 

We invite you to join us at our next event and experience the benefits for yourself!
