New outdoor science and

Saturday, June 4, a multi-agency "work day," involv-
ing the Civil Air Patrol (CAP) and partner organizations,
will begin a year-long project "-- developing a 35-acre
survival property at the Evergreen Aviation Museum in
McMinnville. The property will be used to teach outdoor
science and outdoor survival to the public and youth
groups, such as Scouts, CAP, and 4H clubs, and aviation
groups. The property will also be used as a training site
for air and ground search and rescue.
The first "work day" will begin at 8 am and involves
property design and the development of teaching areas and
trails. Participating agencies include the Civil Air Patrol,
Yamhill County Sheriff's Office Search and Rescue Team,
Yamhill County Emergency Management Office, Oregon
National Guard, Evergreen Aviation Museum staff and
volunteers.
The work party will create a GPS and compass
course, cutting roads and trails, building a safe access to
the Yamhill River, building fire rings and an Operations
Center for first aid, communication and operations, as
well as developing a shelter teaching area and a group
teaching area as well as signs for the property.
The project goal is to build a safe environment to
teach public classes regarding fire building, water pro-
curement, survival food preparation, rescue signaling,
land navigation, survival first aid/hypothermia, man
tracking and a GPS and compass orientation.
The "work day" tools, food and equipment came
from a $500 grant from The Macerich Company, the par-
ent company of Washington Square Shopping Center in
Tigard.
