We wanted to recognize the Las Cruces Association Of REALTORS® for their outstanding community efforts in Southern New Mexico! They raised over $13,000 last October (2019) at our Annual Golf Tournament and Charity Auction. The 2019 raised funds are for donations for 2020 to local non-profits in Dona Ana County.

The Community Service Committee of the Las Cruces Association of REALTORS ® made donations to the following non-profit organizations in March:

$500.00 – Alzheimer’s Association of New Mexico, Las Cruces Chapter
$750.00 – Dyslexia Institute of Southern New Mexico (pictured)
$1000.00 – Casa de Peregrinos (pictured)
$250.00 – Boys and Girls Club of Las Cruces
$250.00 – Battle of the Books
$750.00 – Down Syndrome Families of Las Cruces (pictured)

There is a common saying that it is about the journey, not the destination. But after some hiking in the Organ Mountains outside of Las Cruces Michael and the NM True Crew might argue it is both. The climbs to higher ground included an abundance of both beauty and interesting information from their guide. And the views from the top…stunning. #NewMexicoTrue#NMTrue

This year is different. Because of

For much of its winding travels through New Mexico the Rio Grande is a quiet river. But above the Elephant Butte Dam it becomes a massive lake, filled with just about every water sport imaginable. Boating, water-skiing, fishing, camping, canoeing and much much more is all #NewMexicoTrue

Albuquerque is home to many great museums showcasing art and history. But some of those museums are less traditional and worth a visit just to experience their unusual subject matter. Several of the museums have non-traditional hours and/or seasonal closings. Please be sure to contact the museum directly to check before making your trip.
