Village of Ruidoso Insider - Volume 46: June 2025
A Season of Strength, Celebration, and Community Spirit
As summer settles over Ruidoso, the Village steps confidently into a new season, rooted in the strength of its past and the promise of what lies ahead. With the anniversary of last year’s fires and floods approaching, Mayor Lynn Crawford reflects on the resilience that has shaped our story and the unity that continues to define us.
From the return of champion quarter horses at Ruidoso Downs Race Track to the free Under a Mountain Sky concert series and upcoming endurance events like XTERRA, this season is filled with opportunities to connect, explore, and celebrate. Infrastructure improvements, fire safety awareness, and a focused tourism recovery strategy are helping Ruidoso shine even brighter, with visitor numbers now surpassing pre-disaster levels.
In this month’s Insider, you’ll find updates on community projects, local leadership, museum exhibits, student achievements, and ways to get involved—from book clubs to job openings. Every page is a reminder that Ruidoso’s greatest asset isn’t just its mountain backdrop—it’s the people who call it home.
