Mountain Quail Business Services, Inc. was opened in 1988 by Marilyn and Rick
Peterson as a home-based data processing service. Within months, it quickly
out-grew the home office space and the Quail moved into the Evergreen Park
Building next to the post office in Welches, Oregon. There it has served
the villages at Mt. Hood and beyond ever since with a diverse and ever adapting
menu of business service solutions for individuals, organizations, and
companies.
Mountain Quail incorporated in 1991. Its first major growth occurred
with the addition of temp help services that specializes first in clerical and
administrative support workers for businesses throughout the region. It
now carries a number of other temp help categories.
It subsequently operated a lobby gift shop Birds of a Feather (all
about birds and birding) for nearly 10 years. That retail shop eventually was
folded into the operations of a regional visitor information center, which
Mountain Quail manages by a personal services contract for Oregon's Mt. Hood
Territory, the Clackamas County Tourism Development Council.
Currently Mountain Quail is showing significant growth in an emerging service
often sought by individuals, small companies and non-profit organizations.
Mountain Quail has dubbed this service The Virtual Office. In short,
Mountain Quail serves as the visible, accessible, staffed "Front Desk"
and "Staff" for many businesses and organizations, including Fairway Estates Homeowners Association, Mt.
Hood Area Chamber of Commerce, Mt. Hood/Columbia Gorge Tourism Marketing
Alliance, Mt. Hood Festival of the Forest, Shadow Hawk Homeowners Association
and Zig Zag Homeowners Association, among others.
Mountain Quail continues to look to the future, watching developing trends
in business support services and finding ways as they evolve to serve its
customers. Hence the addition of its newest service: the capability
of downloading disks from a variety of digital cameras to compact disks.
