Foreman Chris Calloway, Alex Jaurequi, Jayden Wietholter and Ramon Rodriguez of Adobe Techniques Masonry put the finishing touches last week on a project that saw stairs with new railings installed, as well as repairs to a retaining wall outside the Harlan Hall science building on the campus of Western New Mexico University.
Crews are working on two construction projects on the Western New Mexico University campus, one of which will be finished in time for the first in-person live performance to take place at WNMU in more than a year.
Outside the Brancheau PE Complex, the sculpture of a young horse representing the Mustangs, WNMU’s athletic mascot, was removed for much of the last year, as workers built a fountain, as well as stairs and a wheelchair-accessible ramp to connect the upper and lower brick patio areas.

Silver City firefighters joined forces with volunteers from Whiskey Creek and Tyrone departments to put down “four or five” grass fires along Mountain View Road just after 7 p.m. Sunday. Investigators were still at work Sunday night, but residents reported the occupants of a gray vehicle shooting fireworks at the time the fires began.
A series of grass fires along Mountain View Road on Sunday evening was sparked by fireworks launched from a vehicle driving along the road, according to residents, but thanks to cooperative winds and a quick response from firefighters, no property damage was reported.
