Residents have also begun to help themselves with activities intended to entice the tourists back. These include a Shao Tribe White Eel Ceremony organized by Sun Moon Lake's Tehwa Community in June; a Shaohsing wine-tasting put on by a Puli distillery; and a cultural day organized by Wufeng Township.
另一方面，居民也開始自力救濟，如日月潭德化社就在八月份舉辦邵族拜鰻祭；埔里酒廠舉辦紹興酒無限制試喝；霧峰鄉將舉行文化節。各鄉鎮都企圖以更有趣的活動吸引觀光客回籠。
