WELCOME to the CHOC Talk, the message forums of the CHOC Board (the Christian Homeschool Online Community Board for westside, and general, Portland, OR). These forums act as "classified ads" and message boards for Christian homeschoolers, and businesses and organizations that serve homeschoolers, to connect with each other to share specific details and information, including time-sensitive events, useful to the homeschool community. The forums are also a great place to connect with other like-minded individuals. Please feel free to contribute knowledge of an upcoming event, fun outing, great activity, new class starting, or query others about a homeschool issue or share homeschool ideas. The forum headings show what topics should go where. The sticky topics in each forum tell how to post and what is allowed (please remain respectful of a Christian worldview and always friendly, wholesome, and truthful). This is the interactive side of our CHOC board "directory" where you in the homeschool community can help generate those great ideas that get archived on our website! (To see the CHOC Board website, please click on our logo above). So join in the fun, post, and connect!

Great Aviation opportunity for Teen Boys and Girls, Start Up Program, (Aurora Airport Wilsonville)


   This post is an announcement of the start-up of a program for teen Boys and Girls.



Calling all Teens who have in interest in Aviation!

Unable to avoid looking up when an airplane flies over?
Been involved in model building/flying but interested in taking it to another level?
Considered a future career in Aerospace?

Here is your chance to get involved in a construction project building a real airplane. Through the generosity of some financial backers, a group of teachers/volunteers, and a non-profit group called Airway Science for Kids, all with an interest in promoting aviation to young people, this program is being offered at no cost to Girls and Boys ages 13-17.

What would be expected of you?
- Have a genuine interest in aviation.
- Be attentive, willing to learn new things, and help others learn.
- Be willing to build technical skills, leadership skills, and working as a team.
- Be willing to make a genuine commitment to attend weekly work sessions.
- Have Fun!

F.A.Q.
When: Every Saturday from 9AM to 3PM
Where: Aurora Airport (just South of Wilsonville, Oregon)
- Attendance at the first 4 work sessions is mandatory. An occasional absence from follow-on sessions is acceptable but we want team members that are committed to attend all work sessions as much as possible.
- The project is estimated to take from 25 – 40 weeks.
- The project team will be limited to 12 members. A selection process will be used if more than 12 eligible members show interest.

What airplane will the team be building? A Vans Aircraft RV-12!
