Financial Aid & Scholarships
Love big like Landon memorial Scholarship
Spearheaded by the campers who shared Landon Fekken's journey
The Love Big Like Landon Memorial Scholarship Fund provides financial support to Miniwanca Four Trails campers who would otherwise be unable to participate in the program.
Landon Loved "Big"
Landon passed away unexpectedly in early 2026, leaving behind a community that loved him deeply.
As his fellow campers embark on their next two AYF excursions without him, they carry with them the memory of Landon's goofy, lighthearted spirit and the tender way he looked out for those around him. Landon saw the world was a place of endless possibility, and he met it with a passion for helping others that left an indelible mark on all those with whom he connected.
The Goal
To ensure that Landon’s vibrant spirit remains a permanent part of the dunes and forests he loved, a scholarship will be established in his memory. This fund is dedicated to providing financial support to Four Trails campers who would otherwise be unable to participate in the program. By removing these barriers, the scholarship honors Landon’s legacy of kindness and his inclusive heart.
Through this scholarship, future campers will find their own light at Miniwanca, just as Landon always did.
