and celebrate public lands, wild spaces, and wilderness areas while learning
technical skills, experiencing personal growth, and making connections with
other Montana youth. All courses include a Leave No Trace Certification. The Yellowstone Expedition includes a 16-hour Wilderness First Aid course from Aerie Backcountry Medicine. </font></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt"><font color="#000000" face="arial, sans-serif"><br></font></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt"><font color="#000000" face="arial, sans-serif">MWS offers partial and full scholarships to
assist with tuition costs. Financial aid is awarded to
applicants who show motivation and commitment to thrive on MWS expeditions and
who would not be able to attend without financial support. MWS also has
the means to provide gear, clothing and boots for students in need. </font></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt"><font color="#000000" face="arial, sans-serif"></font></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt"><font color="#000000" face="arial, sans-serif"></font></p>
