May 25    Coco Enterprises Presents: A Tale of Two Entrepreneurs
Coco Enterprises Presents: "A Tale of Two Entrepreneurs”
Does industry require government intervention and financial support to succeed? History seems to suggest the answer is “no.” In this presentation, Joe will be discussing examples throughout history where government subsidies for capital intensive industries - such as the railroads and flight - turned out to cause more problems than solutions. Come join us for this interesting discussion, and learn how market entrepreneurs of the past competed and won against the government’s favorites.

May 27    Leave No Trace Training
In conjunction with our 35th Anniversary celebration, Glacier Guides and Montana Raft is proud to invite the community to an event featuring the Subaru/Leave No Trace Traveling Trainers!

Mark your calendars for May 27 and join us at our West Glacier campus - there will be giveaways and other afternoon events announced soon! The LNT training will be from 10a-12p. It is family friendly and open to all ages.

The Subaru/Leave No Trace Traveling Trainer program consists of four teams of two educators that travel across the country in Subarus teaching people how to protect and enjoy the outdoors responsibly. The Subaru/Leave No Trace Traveling Trainers offer programs to the general public, volunteers, youth, nonprofit organizations, friend groups, governmental agencies, and more on Leave No Trace skills and techniques intended to reduce the impact of outdoor activities in communities around the United States. The Traveling Trainers do all of this while traveling and living out of their Subaru, camping over 250 nights a year! In 2015 alone, the Subaru/Leave No Trace Traveling Trainers will reach 15 million Americans.

Seven Principles of Leave No Trace:

Plan Ahead and Prepare
Travel and Camp on Durable Surfaces
Dispose of Waste Properly
Leave What You Find
Minimize Campfire Impacts
Respect Wildlife
Be Considerate of Other Visitors
