Over 80 loads delivered by residents to the South Brewster County Road & Bridge Yard on Saturday will soon be removed from South County, except for the items that were recycled on the spot. Thanks to everyone for separating trash, metal, and tires so that Brewster County can most efficiently and economically offer this service. The R & B Crew and I want to thank everyone for pitching in and helping your neighbors. It was a really nice day and so were all of you. And we'll take a look at your suggestions for improving this service. Regards,

Big Bend National Park Implements Fire Prevention Measures
Due to prolonged extreme fire danger, Big Bend National Park is implementing a ban on smoking in the Chisos Basin Campground. The park already prohibits smoking on all Chisos Mountains trails, including popular day hikes such as the Lost Mine and Window Trails. Smoking will only be allowed at designated smoking areas (areas with outside cigarette/ash receptacles).
Additionally, all types of fires are now also prohibited along the Rio Grande corridor within the park. A ban on charcoal fires was implemented in the park last month.
These measures will remain in effect until fire danger abates significantly.
Since January, precipitation has been well below normal, and the park is continuing to experience dry
conditions with no foreseeable change. These factors result in extremely dry vegetation that is highly
susceptible to even the smallest spark. A fire would spread rapidly, be difficult to suppress, and pose
extreme risks to park visitors and staff.
Visitors can help Big Bend prevent fires by using pull-outs along roadways rather than parking on
vegetation, using extreme caution while handling any type of flame (camp stoves, lighters, etc.), and
properly disposing of cigarette butts where smoking is allowed.
Smoking will only be allowed at designated smoking areas (buildings with ash tray) for these two areas.
Artists .... time for a fun installation, "Wots in the Box?". First time ever!! ... A daring way for a patron of the arts to get a new piece of art. Artists put art in a box. Artwork is described by artist, however the work is purchased unseen. The art is purchased for either 25, 50, or 100 dollars. Original works ... so this is a great way for Patrons to begin or continue to collect art. We will have several pieces from local artists that are debuting in this installation. This is the perfect opportunity to move inventory, an odd piece, or try something new. No, the art does not need to be recycled art! However, the installation will be in the window at Gallery on the Square during the R3 show. Call of art with details are can be found on facebook at:https://www.facebook.com/events/366183217198912/ or simply send an email request to thebackroomgroup@gmail.com. Important Dates:
Entries due: April 22-24
Show Dates: April 26 ~ June 19
Reception: Friday, May 4- 5pm to 7pm
Gallery On The Square, 115 West Holland Ave, Alpine
