Speeding in RVR
Whenever drivers fail to obey the speed limits set on our roadways, they pose an unnecessary safety risk for everyone in the community. RVR endeavours to keep everyone who travels through our neighborhood safe.
RVR General Manager, Ashley Lynch, recently met with the Town of Carbondale Chief of Police to discuss the issue of speeding within our community. We have passed on information gained from our speed surveillance devices. Thanks in advance for keeping this top of mind!
No Pedestrians on Golf Course!
Please remember, there is no pedestrian access on RVR Golf Course cart paths, bridges or greens. Joggers, dog walkers, and even folks cutting across the fairway have been spotted on the course. This type of activity is strictly prohibited and dangerous.

Reminders & Highlights

Green Tip
Please enjoy the following eco-friendly tidbit brought to you by Friends of the Environment:
Do you ever stop to think where your food comes from? It's best to buy locally sourced food as much as possible to reduce the number of trucks on the highway delivering food from other states and countries. Plus your food will be much fresher. You've probably been to some of the local farmer's markets, but there is a lot more going on in our community to support local produce and meat. The Carbondale Chamber of Commerce developed a farm map of our area with information on local farms and ranches. Check out the amazing quality food grown right in our backyard! Farm Map LJF2 041321 (carbondale.com)

Tuesday, June 14 & 28 | 3 - 4 p.m.
RVR knitting and crocheting club. Open to all levels.
The group will meet on the second and fourth Tuesday of each month from 3 to 4 p.m. Next meet up will be Tuesday, June 14.
