In order to honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and his message of service, ASLA students and staff picked up litter and cleared invasive plants to help make our community a better place. Dr. King said, “Everybody can be great, because everybody can serve.”

Albuquerque Sign Language Academy picked up 3 bags of trash along the Boca Negra Canyon trail at the Petroglyph National Monument. Our second group pulled 6 or more trailer loads of invasive Russian Thistle (tumbleweeds) that were taking over the overflow parking lot at the Rio Grande Nature Center.
