MIMBRES, N.M., Dec.8 – The Wilderness Ranger District on the Gila National Forest is planning prescribed fire operations beginning Dec. 14, pending all required approvals.

Silver City -- In recent years, Silver City Museum staff have worked diligently to present programs and events that reflect local history, celebrate the region's diverse cultural heritage, and engage all members of the community.  This ongoing effort to honor all traditions is perfectly reflected in the museum's new holiday celebration, Tapestry of Traditions: A Celebration of the Season, which debuts Saturday, December 13, from 11 am to 3 pm at the museum.

"We're keeping everything people love," explained Museum Director Bart Roselli. "This holiday event is still free, Father Christmas will be there, and the Silver Ringtones will perform Christmas carols. We'll be serving cookies and warm cider, and we're offering plenty of fun children's activities. We've really focused on engaging with all sectors of our community, and realized that it was time to make some changes to our holiday celebration to better reflect the many ways in which our community celebrates this season."
