Save the Date: Hopi Substance Abuse Prevention Highway 89 Clean-up April 22
Hopi Substance Abuse Prevention annual Adopt-A-Highway cleanup on Highway 89 will take place April 22.
The location of the section of highway serves as a main artery to the Hopi communities and also represents a physical gateway to nearby border towns where alcohol is legal and access to drugs along I-40 is a reality. Along this stretch of highway that shifts from the Little Painted Desert across high desert range lands to a panoramic view of the Hopi plateau region, litter and alcohol bottles are frequently seen on the drive to the mesas.
It is here that tells many of us “we’re home.”
The HSAPC sponsors this section of highway to clean and provides an opportunity for clients to participate in their recovery service work. If you are in recovery and seeking a place to start your journey, HSAPC invites you to join them. This is a great way for our recovery community to give back by participating in this sober event that also aligns with Global Earth Day.

Family Friday: How a museum works May 6
If you’ve visited a museum, what you saw was only a small part of all the things the museum takes care of. On May 6 from 3-4 p.m. Museum of Northern Arizona will celebrate International Museum Day (May 18) by taking a tour into the Easton Collection Center to learn how objects and art are preserved, why objects are frozen before they are stored, how light can damage objects. See how special containers are built to safely store fragile objects and learn how to start & display your own collection.
