What is Exploring?

Exploring is a worksite-based program that gives youth the opportunity to visit community organizations and explore the dynamics of various careers. There are 200+ explorer posts in the Portland Metro Area, but Post 915 is the only High Tech orientated post.

Post 915 Charter

The Charter of Post 915 is to give young men and women between the ages of 14 and 20 the opportunity to explore the dynamics of High Tech careers and hobbies with presentations and hands on experiences.

Post 915 also introduces the young men and women to community service by helping them refurbish "waterfalled" computers from our sponsor Intel Corporation to be donated to non-profit charities in the Portland Metro area.

2006/2007 Meeting schedule

This year the post will be meeting on the 1st and 3rd Wednesday's of each month. The meetings start at 7PM and go until 9PM. If it is necessary to get a visitors badge please arrive ten minutes early.
