Martin Luther King Jr. Day

The Soil Conservation Office will be closed on January 15th in recognition of Martin Luther King’s Birthday.

On Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, the entire nation pauses in remembrance of a civil rights hero. At least, that’s the point of the federal holiday that takes place on the third Monday of each January. MLK Day was designed to honor the activist and minister assassinated in 1968, whose accomplishments have continued to inspire generations of Americans.
