Thanks for your support! Without your support we never could have made 2010 as successful as it was. Please help us continue to improve on this success and let’s make 2011 even better! Rimrock recycling site relocates and on Tuesday, January 18, Rimrock’s recycling bins found a new home! The recycling drop-off site previously located at Beaver Creek Gas Mart moved (almost literally) a hop, skip, and a jump away to the other side of the Rimrock Post Office. Thanks to Beaver Creek Baptist Church for generously providing the new location for this 24-hour community drop-off site!Additional thanks to John and Linda Coles, owners of Beaver Creek Gas Mart for allowing the site to be located on their property for the last four years, and to all those in the Rimrock/Lake Montezuma community who helped find a new location for the recycling bins on such short notice.
