Historical note

Intermountain Yearly Meeting of Friends (IMYM) began as a Fellowship when Arizona and New Mexico Quarterly Meetings met with Colorado and Utah Friends, at a gathering at Ghost Ranch New Mexico in June 1970. The groups officially combined to form Intermountain Yearly Meeting in 1975, and have met annually, usually at Ghost Ranch.
