As our program year has come to a close, we all get a little break for the summer to rest, recharge, reset, and come back to prepare for the next years class! So things might get a little quiet here for the summer but we’ll pop in with updates and other happenings here and there. Otherwise, Happy Summer friends! Make it a great one 🤩😎☀️

One last official post before we break for summer…
We are so proud to officially welcome the FLP Class of 2026 graduates as alumni! On May 16 at Theatrikos, with mimosas in hand, we celebrated 22 leaders who completed the program. They recapped their class project, which included highlight videos, and presented each other with their graduation plaques.
Thanks to all the family, friends, fellow FLP alumni and board members who joined us in the celebration. We cannot wait to see all the Box Burners accomplish and know they will continue to do us proud.

And finally, the final LED post of the year. Another better late than never post 😅
Flagstaff may be a small mountain community, but it's also home to an incredible concentration of scientific research, innovation, and discovery.
During our recent Science in the Community Leadership Education Day, Flagstaff Leadership Program participants had the opportunity to learn from researchers, educators, environmental leaders, archaeologists, public health experts, and community advocates who are making an impact both locally and globally.
From forest restoration and tribal environmental leadership to astronomy, archaeology, public health, and scientific research in the Grand Canyon, the day offered a powerful reminder of the vital role science plays in shaping our communities and informing the decisions that affect our future.
Thank you to our speakers, partners, and hosts at the U.S. Geological Survey for providing an inspiring look at the groundbreaking work happening right here in northern Arizona. U.S. Geological Survey (USGS)
Thanks to Inspire Homecare for sponsoring lunch for the class 🫶🏼
Well, that’s a wrap…next up, final posts about the 2026 class graduation! Then summer break. ☀️🕶️🌻

The class of 2026 the Box Burners did an incredible job with their class project, building and installing flagstaff’s first ever Wind Phone. What a fantastic turnout today at the ribbon cutting. Here’s many many photos to enjoy. Videos coming up in another post!

FLP is rebuilding after the pandemic years, and we’re working hard to bring back strong Leadership Education Days, a committed Board, and cohorts that truly reflect Flagstaff.
We’re raising $10,000 to restore our pre-pandemic footing, keep tuition affordable, and grow a future scholarship fund for local leaders who need financial support.
If you’re able, a gift of $10, $20, or $50 helps us keep this community-centered program thriving.
