Rapids City Receives "Green" Award
Allied Waste, our contracted garbage and recycling company, has awarded Rapids City the "Mother Nature Approved" award for 2009 due to its decrease in trash by 32 tons and its increase in recycling by 12 tons! Be sure to crush your cans and plastic bottles and break down your boxes to make room for more recycling!

Please keep culverts clean
Keeping our culverts clean will help with drainage and reduce flooding. Do not rake leaves and debris into the streets. This plugs the storm drains, which causes flooding in yards and streets. Thank you for your cooperation.

Garbage Reminder
Just a reminder that garbage and recycling needs to be out by 7 a.m. on pick up day in order to ensure pick up. Garbage pick up is one day late on major holidays.

River Valley Library Fundraiser
The River Valley Library is hosting an elite wine tasting at the Village of Rapids City community center on Saturday, September 18, 5:30-8:30 p.m. Tickets available at the library or www.rivervalleylibrary.org.
