Advertise in the Spring/Summer Guide to Julian

The Julian Chamber of Commerce is once again partnering with the Julian Merchants Association to produce the Guide to Julian. The fifth issue produced by the JMA and Chamber will be the Spring / Summer 2026 issue. Our goal date for the guide to hit the streets is the week of March 20th. This goal is only obtainable with the help and cooperation of all advertisers.


There is no increase in advertising cost for this issue.  INCLUDED BENEFIT. There is now a digital version of the Guide to Julian on the Visit Julian Website. You can see the 2025-2026 Fall/Winter Guide to Julian version here:  https://visitjulian.com/latest_guide The digital version includes Clickable Links!!! This means a view of the digital version can click on your ad and be taken directly to your chosen URL (website, FB, IG or YouTube).  This is a major upgrade with no added cost!


Chamber Members will still receive a 10% discount on all ad sizes 1/4 page and larger. Members will also have clickable links to their website on their listing on the digital version of the guide.


Our distribution of our Fall/Winter 2026 was extremely successful. We put 10,000 copies in the The Long Beach Press Telegram and Daily Breeze We had hand delivered 2500 guides to coffee shop locations all over San Diego County.


Patricia McConnell, member of the Julian Chamber of Commerce and owner of Julian Jewel Box has volunteered to assist us and you with your advertising investment in the Julian Guide. She will be reaching out to you soon. You are welcome to text her at 760-825-9261.


We are excited to take on this project to serve our visitors and our local businesses.


If you have any questions, please email julianmerchants@gmail.com

We look forward to working with you.

Health Insurance premiums are on the rise. 

Supplemental policies can help offset those costs for a minimum amount. 

 

Melisa has been a Julian homeowner since 2003 and an insurance broker since 2007. She has Aflac available for employers to offer their employees. 

 

She is willing to hold an information presentation at the town hall but we’d like gauge interest. You can also just call or email her to set up a one-on-one meeting. melisasanchez@mac.com

 

Some of the benefits are: 

 

👍🏽 Aflac can be NO COST to the employer but is a benefit employees look for

 

🏥 Unlike health insurance which pays the doctors for medical bills, our policies pay the insured lump sums for them to do as they like 🏖️🎭🎥🗽🎰🎲

 

💸 Offering these plans through you as an employer gets everyone access to discount group rates which are about 40% less than direct policies. 

 

💰 The rates are locked in for life regardless of how many times claims are paid out 

 

📋 The policies are property of the insureds and can be ported out if someone is no longer an employee. 

 

Would you be interested in attending a workshop on this topic at Town Hall?

January 20, 2025 Attention, please. The Guide to Julian

2025 Spring / Summer Guide to Julian.

The Julian Chamber of Commerce is once again partnering with the Julian Merchants Association to produce the Guide to Julian. The third issue produced by the JMA and Chamber will be the Spring Summer 2025 issue. Our goal date for the guide to hit the streets is March 22, 2025. This goal is only obtainable with the help and cooperation of all advertisers.


With this issue comes a 5% increase in advertising prices. Chamber Members will receive a 10% discount on all ad sizes 1/4 page and larger.

Our distribution of our second issue (Fall/Winter 2024) was extremely successful. We put 10,000 copies in the Orange County Register family of publications. We had hand delivered 2700 guides to coffee shop locations all over San Diego County. We also delivered many to San Diego hotels.


Patricia McConnell, member of the Julian Chamber of Commerce and owner of Julian Jewel Box has volunteered to assist us and you with your advertising investment in the Julian Guide. She will be reaching out to you soon. You are welcome to text her at 760-825-9261.


You can get started right away by securing your ad space online at

https://julianchamber.org/guide-to-julian/


We are excited to take on this project to serve our visitors and our local businesses.


If you have any questions, please email julianmerchants@gmail.com

We look forward to working with you.

November 6, 2024 1. Important Public Meeting 2. Sidewalk Cleaning

The following information provided by Eric Jones of the Julian Community Planning Group.


The Build Alternative would upgrade 15 curb ramps to meet ADA standards. The existing curb ramps, curbs, and gutters would be upgraded, and a detectable warning surface (a distinctive surface pattern that alerts people with vision impairments to potential hazards) would be installed in each curb ramp. Curb ramps would be upgraded on State Route 78 at intersections with Washington Street, Coleman Circle, Fourth Street, B Street, C Street, Porter Lane, and State Route 79. Decorative crosswalks would be installed at select locations. At the intersection of Main Street and Washington Street in downtown Julian, the Build Alternative would construct curb extensions to meet ADA standards. The curb extension would increase the visibility of pedestrians crossing the roadway with fewer pavement markings and signs, in addition to shortening the crossing length to improve traffic operations. The existing curb ramp at the northwestern corner of the intersection (where Julian Market & Deli is located) currently has building columns in the middle of the nonstandard curb ramp; the building columns would be retained, and no alterations would be made to the existing building.


Proposed improvements in the town of Julian would integrate into the historic character of the town and reduce visual impact. The project proposes to install bulb outs, crosswalks, and ADA curb ramps. The project originally proposed large bulb outs with curb ramps at each corner of the intersection of Washington Street and Main Street. Urban style, high-visibility continental crosswalks were also proposed at the intersections of Main Street with Washington Street, B Street and, C Street. Julian stakeholders reviewed the proposal and requested that the proposed design be reconsidered to fit the rural character of the town. In response, the intersection of Main Street and Washington Street was redesigned to reduce the size of the proposed bulb outs, ensure that the bulb outs do not impact any historic buildings, and eliminate high-visibility continental crosswalks. Proposed crosswalks would use stamped asphalt with a colored brick pattern at crosswalks to mimic bricks used in some of the buildings in downtown Julian. Public sensitivity to this visual change should be moderate to low because the aesthetic would be designed to be consistent with the historic, rural character of Julian and avoid visual impacts.


The project would implement the following project features to minimize visual impacts within the Julian Historic District. New crosswalks will use stamped asphalt paving with a brick pattern to match the pattern of the existing stamped brick crosswalk at 10th Street in Ramona. The stamped asphalt surface color will look like the brick color or colors used at brick buildings in the historic district. High visibility “Continental” crosswalk striping must not be used over the stamped asphalt brick paving at crosswalks. Reconstructed sidewalks and curb ramps will be integrally colored concrete to appear as older concrete. The surface finish should appear to be a uniform “light sand finish”. The sand finish will be achieved by using concrete surface retardants (no sandblasting, water blasting, or broom finish). Truncated domes would be either brown or gray (not yellow).
