 New Crew!

Glenburn Troop 302 is considering forming a new Venture Crew with an emphasis on mechanics and motorsports of all types. We would be looking at projects that would involve not only mechanics but also learning welding, auto-body and painting, drivetrain rebuilding, alternative fuel vehicles and machining. The youth would have a chance to learn about automotive, marine, motorcycle and aviation mechanics. Various field-trips to shops, races, fly-ins and marinas will be available also.

This has the potential to be a very dynamic Crew with the emphasis on “hands on experience” not just reading out of a shop manual.

 We already have interest and are looking for as many as we can get to make this happen. Our goal is to have an informational meeting in November, if there is enough interest we then will Charter in December and hit the ground running in January 2011.

 This will be open to both boys and girls from 13-21 years old. We will be following the Venture Crew program and the youth will be expected to work together.

 If you would like to know more on making Crew 302 “The Gearheads” happen, call me at 478-5937 or e-mail at evtmaine@yahoo.com

 Thank-you,
