WEN
started a flagship program with Hellgate High School in the spring
of 2004. This program offers a range of after-school activities as
a way of involving teens in the greater Missoula community. WEN intern
Tina Toth launched the program in the spring of 2004 with 4 students.
Projects included fly fishing, cross country skiing in the Rattlesnake
and water journaling. We have since expanded student numbers and scheduled
events to include:
- A
