The emblem at Christmas Circle has been updated from the ram to the sun, along with a fresh coat of paint.


Did you notice the update at Christmas Circle? The emblem has been refreshed, replacing the ram with the sun and adding a new coat of paint to brighten the sign.


The work is maintained by the Christmas Circle Board, a local nonprofit that relies on community support. Frank Murillo, a board member and longtime resident, volunteers his time to keep the sign clean, current, and welcoming. His ongoing efforts are part of what helps maintain the appearance and pride of this central gathering place.


Small details like this reflect the care people have for Borrego Springs—and the many volunteers who quietly keep things looking their best. The Board welcomes donations of all sizes to help continue maintaining Christmas Circle and its features for the community.


Borrego Springs is fortunate to have dedicated individuals like Murillo helping preserve what makes the area special.
