Six Scouts Honored for Audiovisual Projects Six Rochester area teen-age boys have been awarded special recognition at the conclusion of the first career exploration program in audiovisual held at Kodak office and conducted by Explorer Scout Post 390. The post was established last winter to open up career exploration possibilities for young men interested in the audiovisual field. Participating boys conceive, write, photograph, and produce audiovisual presentations. The idea behind the new post is that audiovisual media are no longer a luxury, but rather an integral part of today's education, business, and government, and career opportunities for young people are growing rapidly. Twenty-two boys were enrolled for this first Explorer program. The award winners were chosen by the boys and their leaders. Sixteen Kodak staff members worked closely with the scouts in the lecture and workshop sessions.
