 RVR Residents Participate in Snowmass Tree Bombing

RVR Residents, Sarah Murr, Nan Sundeen, Connie Nostdahl and Gail Falwell participated in the Snowmass Town Park Tree Bombing. The Town of Snowmass provided the yarn and let RVR's Naughty Knitters create their own designs for selected trees. The designs can be viewed all summer at Town Park.

The Naughty knitters meet every Tuesday from 3p.m. - 4:30ish at the Ranch House.

As a kind reminder, the Town of Carbondale has an ordinance to help preserve the view of the night sky. Residential outdoor lights are restricted in brightness and must be pointed down with a limited light arc. While the HOA does not regulate what time of the day exterior lighting should be turned off, many in the community have their lighting set on a timer so that lights are not on overnight, which also helps preserve the night sky.

We ask that homeowners please check their exterior lighting to make sure that it is dark sky compliant. 

The Sopris Sun recently ran an article about dark sky in the valley: Reveling in our Dark Sky.

Summer is here, and once again, we are all ready for farm-fresh produce and fruit. It's tempting to over purchase when we see those mouthwatering tomatoes, corn, peppers, and melons. But food waste is a huge problem, and the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture estimates that over 1/3 of the fruits and vegetables we buy are thrown away. Reasons vary but include buying food your family won't eat, not eating leftovers, and overestimating how much food you need. A recent study shows that the produce and fruit most likely to be wasted are, in order: lettuce, bananas, apples, avocados, and carrots. So be mindful of what you buy, how much you need, and what your family will eat.

The RVR Hiking Club will meet on Monday, June 19 to hike Thomas Lakes.
