A scholarship fund has been established in memory of alumni Scott Newton (class of 2008) to support students who wish to pursue outdoor recreation. Please consider donating to this fund whatever amount you are able - every little bit counts! Details are below...

Erin Merrill, Scott's cousin, is leading the charge and any donations can be made to her venmo, -Merrill-21, or PayPal, [email protected], accounts. She will also be at Scott's celebration of life, August 7th, taking donations in all forms. The goal is to create a 1,000 dollar scholarship in perpetuity, which means we needs lots of donations!

It is with great sadness that we recognize the passing of one of our alumni Scott Newton. "Scotty" was a graduate of the class of 2008 and was recognized as our Student of the Year. We liked him so much that we hired him to guide some of our student expeditions after he graduated. He always took pride in providing a high-quality experience for his clients and guests. Our condolences go out to his family, friends, and community.
