About the Fires
The Village of Ruidoso is allowing re-entry to residents starting Monday, June 24th at 8:00AM. The South Fork Fire is currently 37% contained with 17,551 acres burned. The Salt Fire is 7% contained with 7,816 acers burned. The national weather service has issued multiple Flash Flood Warnings. Due to the burn scars, these floods happen fast and bring lots of debris with them. Please stay away from Cedar Creek that runs through the property, while we repair the dam and clean up the debris.
All club facilities will be closed until further notice. This includes the Golf Course, Pool, Clubhouse, Fishing, and all Sports Courts. Our staff has not been able to return on-site yet. We will need time to assess all damages and ensure everything is in proper working and safe conditions before we re-open. I will keep you posted on a timeline of when we will have the facilities operational.
While staff was unable to return, we were able to utilize First Security to continue the security patrols around the property. Mountain Communications was able to install satellite internet at the clubhouse, which feeds internet to all homes. We have reports that power, water, and gas are all functioning at Innsbrook. The water is not very clear, so if you are returning immediately, please bring plenty of water!
