Commissioner Robinson and Volunteers in Action at the Dudley School Prepare for Monday's MLK Events...

That’s a great photo above and a wonderful example of community leadership in action! City Commissioner Warren Robinson (District 3, Alamogordo) rolling up his sleeves—literally getting down on the floor to scrub paint stains and dirt at the Dudley School Community Center—shows real dedication to preparing the space for Monday's MLK Day events.

Commissioner Robinson, who’s also a retired reverend and active in local civil rights efforts, is helping volunteers ready the historic Dudley School for the march and gathering. It’s inspiring to see elected officials leading by example in service and unity
