Kuttner/Mason Camp Unalayee Scholarship Fund

Kuttner/Mason Camp Unalayee Scholarship Fund

The fund was created by a friendship circle of Guy Kuttner and John "Moose" Mason---both highly regarded, dedicated, and inspirational local public school teachers---to honor their love of high mountain wilderness, commitment to environmental education, and emphasis on cooperative hands-on learning. The fund's sole purpose is to financially enable children from low-income, urban households to attend Camp Unalayee. Short-term and long-term financial goals, respectively, are to cover one camper's costs per year and to grow a self-supporting endowment. Since 1949, Camp Unalayee---an accredited, nonprofit backpacking summer camp located in the Trinity Alps Wilderness---has been providing children from all walks of life with experiences that are life affirming for all and life changing for many. The camp emphasizes cooperation, building confidence through learning outdoor skills, exploring one's interests and natural abilities, and sharing daily responsibilities at base camp and on backcountry trails.
