Youth Building Alternatives is Getting Ready for the
New England Carpentry Challenge!
This is the 12th year that Portland West’s Youth Building Alternatives students will enter the Carpentry Challenge in Massachusetts.
If you hear pounding going on in our driveway on Brackett St., it is the YBA students practicing putting up walls in record time, without leaving so much as a piece of sawdust behind.
