It is not always easy to find a place to meet, listen to speakers, put on a show or work on volunteer projects in Maricopa.
A consistently accessible and affordable venue for community activities has been in demand for years.
“I think it’s critically necessary,” retiree Ted Yocum said.
He is part of a group of Maricopans who formed a nonprofit a year ago to create a community center, calling it Maricopa Multi Cultural Consortium (MMCC). What followed was a string of discussions and visits to centers in various cities to snoop out possibilities.
