Finding Tomorrow’s Leaders Scholarship

To help celebrate the NOLS On the Road: Finding Tomorrow’s Leaders bus tour, Spenco Medical Corporation donated 15 full-tuition scholarships for NOLS courses in the summer of 2005.

Meet Tomorrows's Leaders
In August, the NOLS “Finding Tomorrow’s Leaders” bus tour rolled out in search of great young leaders… Well, we’ve found them. Where? In towns from Flagstaff, Arizona to Holiday, Florida and all points in between—as the bus made its veggie-powered way 20,000 miles across 30 states during a 240-day journey.

The scholarship committee selected 15 lucky leaders to attend 2005 summer NOLS courses, all sponsored by the Spenco Medical Corporation. The winners, who range in age from 14 to 22, demonstrate excellent leadership potential…a skill we hold in high esteem here at the National Outdoor Leadership School.

And the winners are…
