Thanks so much to the greater Durango community and the people who came from Bayfield, Ignacio and even from Aztec and other parts of San Juan County, N.M., for supporting our high school students in the March for Our Lives. We counted more than 1,300 marchers on a beautiful Saturday afternoon.
Thanks to the incredible students who planned the event and who spoke at the March, all the volunteers who donated their time and/or money to the effort, and all the community organizations who were there to provide helpful information. Thanks are also due to Indivisible Durango, Durango Parks and Recreation, the elected officials who were there to support the students, and especially to our 9-R school district, the Durango Police Department and the La Plata Sheriff’s Office for their efforts in support of the March.
We also appreciate the Durango Herald for their excellent coverage of the March (Herald, March 24). We are so very proud of our community!
