Eagle Mount Provides therapeutic and recreational activities for children and adults with physical, mental or behavioral challenges, striving to improve the quality of life for them and their families
Rafting! Pontoon boat trips! Fishing! The days spent on the Missouri River bring so much joy to everyone involved. If you love the Montana outdoors and being on the river, you will love helping out in the Summer Water Activities program. In 2003 we acquired a 24 foot pontoon boat to better serve our participants that are wheelchair bound or cannot go on rafting trips. We continue to offer the rafting trips for anyone interested. Rafting trips are made around Great Falls and in the canyon between Great Falls and Helena. For those interested in latching on to a beautiful brown trout we take fishing excursions at various locations. Any time you many be able to give to this program is greatly appreciated!
Gardening and Trail Blazing Activities to be added summer of 2008! Contact Jarad at Eagle Mount for more information.
