AFTON

What this record means

The record shows that “AFTON” is a live Principal Register service mark owned by Afton, LLC, a limited‑liability company organized in Oregon, and it has been renewed as of the December 26, 2019 filing of the required Section 8 (10‑year) and Section 9 statements. The registration covers only one class—Class 041 “Education & Entertainment”—specifically the service of “arranging and conducting special events,” with a first use date of November 24, 2008. Because the protection is limited to that description, a similar name used for unrelated goods or services would be the farthest concern, while another party offering event‑planning or similar entertainment services could encounter the closest record‑based issue. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the word “AFTON.” No opposition, cancellation or court activity appears in the history, so there are no visible enforcement signals. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to use “Afton” for event‑related services, but the risk is lower for other categories.
