Join us for our monthly volunteer gatherings, held on the second Tuesday of every month from 9:30AM - 10:30AM at the Asombro Institute for Science Education office at 401 E. College Drive, Las Cruces. This is a great opportunity to meet other volunteers who have worked in the education and STEM realms, have shared interest in promoting science among K-12 students in our local schools, and have a passion for contributing to the great community we live in! We work on a variety of tasks such as prepping materials for Asombro's education programs, compiling kits for teacher workshops, assembling items for classroom science experiments, and whatever else is needed to increase natural science literacy through engaging place-based education!

Las Cruces Board Gamers meets every Thursday at NMSU Corbett Center on the ground floor, at the windowed room across from Chick Fil e. We usually meet at NMSU though can also go to other areas depending on school schedule. We often favor medium-difficulty games (pandemic is a good example), and often have a wide variety of options for different tastes. Usually not as much "kill your opponent" games. Free and we'll have games so if you don't have one to bring, that's okay, just bring yourself!
Al-Anon is for family and friends affected by someone else's drinking or drug use.
