About the Project
- Oregon California Trails Association
- The Oregon-California Trails Association (OCTA) in association with Boston Productions is producing a 1-hour broadcast television program, "In Pursuit of a Dream," and series of short videos to be shown in schools throughout the country about what it was like to be an emigrant traveling West on a wagon train. The program is being produced by Boston Productions, an award winning Film Company that produces theatrical presentations for museums, visitor centers, and broadcast outlets. Boston Productions has worked on other projects about the overland trail experience story, but this promises to be our biggest adventure ever.

Today, NW Chapter OCTA annual meeting devoted 90 minutes to watching

Wow! Your perseverance over the years on this project has really paid off.
Now it seems like one of the best ways of conveying emigrant heritage
--and hopefully will become one of best ways
of interesting more people in OCTA-related activities.
~~Thanks and Congratulations!

Boy Scouts of America and the National Park Service have been working together since 1971 to provide young men between the ages of 5-18 with the opportunity to learn about resource protection management and other facets of the National Park Service.
Boy Scouts participate in park interpretive programs, resource management workshops, and volunteer clean up of parks and the NPS Scout Rangers program.
For further questions about the Boy Scouts and their relationship with the National Park Service call (202) 513-7146 or visit the Boy Scouts website.
I just saw the film at the Pix Theatre in downtown Albany, and I was so impressed with the production! Thanks to everyone who made this possible.
