    On March 21st, eleven FLC students traveled to Arizona to meet with the Grand Canyon Trust, a conservation group based in Flagstaff, Arizona. This was the beginning of Fort Lewis College’s second annual Alternative Spring Break. I had the good fortune of helping to organize the trip, and was accompanied by some of the best people I’ve ever had the good luck to meet. The students who signed up were passionate, soulful, and committed to the purpose of the trip: helping others, conservation, and having the time of our lives while doing so.
