Martin Luther King Jr. Day celebration to feature host of virtual activities 11 Jan, 2021
This year’s Martin Luther King Jr. Day celebration at Colorado State University is going virtual.
While there won’t be the traditional march from Old Town Square to campus, there will be a host of virtual activities for members of the CSU and Fort Collins communities. Planned virtual events include the screening of a Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day video, featuring CSU and community leaders, as well as an homage to the 1965 Selma to Montgomery marches led by Dr. King.
Full event details will be available on Wednesday, Jan. 13, at mlkfortcollins.org. The celebration is a joint effort between CSU, City of Fort Collins and Front Range Community College as well as a host of other campus and city partners.

Chelsea Duke and her husband, Jon, have five kids. Duke is also remodeling her home painting her walls as she talks on her AirPods about her passion for yoga. Like most parents these days, she is also a part-time teacher. She also still teaches six days a week at the yoga studio Hard Core Yoga, which she opened in Eugene nine and a half years ago.
But Duke says yoga is the perfect escape from this stressful and busy life many have come to know.
“All of the stress of the world melts away naturally when you set those things down and when you give your brain something to focus on,” Duke says. “And in this case it’s the physical movement of the practice, or steadiness of your breath, or the way that your hips feel, or the way you ground your feet into the mat, like all of these little things that are simple and pure.”
