This old man was found wandering by Cimarron Crossing Park. Let's get him home! Please contact City Hall at 620-855-2215 or Mark at 620-253-9284 to reclaim this pupper.
As we begin Welcoming Week, we honor this year’s theme, “Stories We Share: The Courage to Connect,” by celebrating the diverse journeys that bring all of us together in our community. This kickoff day is also Patriots Day, a time to remember, reflect, and reaffirm the values of unity, resilience, and connection that define us.
This year is our very first Welcoming Week in Cimarron and is fully supported by the Mayor’s Proclamation, which reminds us that our community is stronger when we embrace both our similarities and our differences. Throughout the week, neighbors will come together to share food, music, art, conversation, and more, choosing connection, courage, and compassion as we continue building a more inclusive Cimarron.
No matter how long we have called the United States home, each of us carries a family story that extends beyond our borders. Our community is enriched by heritage from every corner of the world. As we continue celebrating America’s 250th anniversary, we highlight the many pathways to freedom and belonging that shape who we are today. Many of our neighbors trace their heritage to Mexico, a nation with its own history of perseverance and independence, and with Mexico’s Independence Day falling during Welcoming Week, we have a meaningful opportunity to honor this shared spirit of liberty. These experiences of striving for freedom connect us across cultures, histories, and generations.
Inside City Hall, we invite everyone to participate in a living display of our community’s heritage. A large world map is available for you to place a pin marking where your family’s story began, whether that is outside the United States or here at home. As more pins are added throughout the week, this collective map will become a visual celebration of the many paths that meet here in Cimarron.
Welcoming Week is a celebration of freedom, connection, and community. Guided by the Mayor’s call to choose welcoming over division, we hope you’ll join us for the events planned throughout the week as we honor our stories, build stronger bonds, and continue shaping a community where everyone belongs.

What happens if you don't have a will?
You don't get to choose who makes decisions, who receives your assets, or how your wishes are carried out. Don't leave your family guessing. Give them a plan and give yourself peace of mind.
Don't leave important decisions to chance. An estate plan helps protect what you've worked for, care for the people you love, and give your family peace of mind for the future.
It's the best gift you can give your family having your wishes known when you pass. And the ease of settling your estate, no matter the size!
Western Kansas Community Foundation Invites you to this Free Legacy Planning on October 19th from 1-3 p.m. @ Linger Gig Lab

And this Saturday will be the first of many opportunities to connect!

CIMARRON COMMUNITY EMPOWERMENT BOARD
Behind every event, every improvement, and every gathering in Cimarron, there is a team of people working quietly behind the scenes, planning, organizing, and doing their best to bring good things to our community.
Today, we’re excited to share a photo of the Cimarron Community Empowerment Board, the group supporting the 2026 Cimarron Celebration and many other community efforts throughout the year.
Follow our new page at:
👉 https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61590770063573
This team stays busy helping build pride in our community, encouraging volunteerism, strengthening local involvement, and keeping Cimarron moving forward in meaningful, positive ways.
Communities are built by people who show up.
People who give their time, share ideas, take on tasks, make mistakes, learn, and try again.
And Cimarron is worth that effort every single day.
So today, before tomorrow’s big Celebration, let’s pause to appreciate everyone who helps make Cimarron better — in big ways, small ways, and behind-the-scenes ways. Every single effort matters.
Here’s to this team.
Here’s to those who volunteer.
Here’s to those who might volunteer someday.
And here’s to Cimarron — a community worth celebrating. 💙✨

CIMARRON — TODAY WE CELEBRATE YOU
As we get ready for tomorrow’s Cimarron Celebration, we want to take a moment to recognize what makes this event truly special: the people of Cimarron.
Everything that happens in this community; every event, every activity, every improvement, exists because someone behind the scenes decided to try.
To show up.
To care.
To keep pushing forward, even when it’s not easy.
Today at noon, the Cimarron Community Empowerment Board meets, and we’ll be sharing a photo because this event is proudly brought to you under their name. But this shout out goes far beyond one group:
It goes out to every person in Cimarron who steps up,
who lends a hand,
who volunteers,
who organizes,
who problem-solves,
who makes mistakes and still gets up again,
who chooses to make our community stronger.
People revitalize communities.
People make things happen.
And Cimarron is absolutely worth celebrating.
So before the big event tomorrow, let’s pause and give a moment of gratitude to everyone who pours their time, energy, and heart into our town.
They are real.
They are human.
And by golly they try and try again to make Cimarron better.
Here’s to Cimarron. Here’s to community. Here’s to Celebration.
We’ll see you all tomorrow from 5–9 PM at Cimarron Crossing Park!
