I remember Kids making $28/hour welding straight out of our HS program. We need more of this kind of training.

Glad to see your son interested! Even if he doesn't pursue any field in those areas(like myself) he will still have those skills forever.
Thurston High School, nationally recognized during the Kip Kinkle shooting spree.......

I completely agree with "we need more of this" I told my son this morning of all the classes I took in junior and high school the classes I benefited the most from to this day were woodworking and automotive.

How's Pendleton doing? We have a family ranch south of Echo, mp4 on Reith Rd.
