Ririe Horizons is a community-oriented group intent on bringing some of the past to the present and future. We are striving to build a Ririe with less poverty and more community. We are volunteers that believe in our community and it's citizens. We believe in building a future that is safe, close knit, and friendly. We believe that by helping, learning, teaching, and serving we can build up a clean, prosperous, thriving Ririe.

Ririe Days is a corroboration of ideas, thoughts, feelings, and memories brought together through Ririe Horizons to address the issues of community. We want Ririe Days to be an event filled day full of fun for families and citizens of our community. We want you to get to know your neighbors, renew acquaintances, make new friends, share your talents and learn new ones. We want you to GET INVOLVED with your community and be PROUD that you are a part of it. We want you to give us new ideas for a better tomorrow and then help us to achieve it. We want you to feel good about saying that you are from Ririe. We hope that Ririe Days will grow to be a good thing in pulling all of us together.

Ririe Days is just a small stepping-stone in the Ririe Horizons vision. We are starting out small with the idea of going big! We are bringing back the feeling of a good old-fashioned community get together were we look forward to gathering each year. We hope that news will spread and that more will be involved and invited. Please take this first step with us and help us to continue on a long path of success.
