The collective about us is simple: We are YOU. We are the collective community of people in Wittmann, Whispering Ranch, Morristown, and Circle City. We are the people that moved out here 30 years ago and the people that moved out here 3 months ago to chase the dreams of living the rural lifestyle. We are the gardeners, the equestrians, the ropers and barrel racers, and the families with little ones in gymkhana. We are the side by side riders and the do it yourselfers. The dog lovers and the desert walkers. We are the collective majority that do not want to see our little slice of rural turned into a subdivision with paint color rules and trash can fines.
The following are the relentless people that are on the front lines of this battle. If this is a calling for you as well, there is much to do. We need help with everything from getting petitions signed to well....harder stuff. Please contact us at #################### and join the crusade.
