Adventurers & Pathfinders

 
Ralph Shelton
Director
The Adventurer Program Adventurers is for any child in grades 1 to 4. Club activities encourage creativity and imagination. Children learn about the Bible, health and fitness, and nature. They develop people skills through club meetings, field trips, nature activities, crafts and games, and conference events.

The Adventurer program is worldwide designed to support parents in the challenging task of helping their children develop fully as followers of Christ in today’s world. It is where children can learn Christian values, experience the joy of doing things well, express their love for Jesus naturally, learn good sportsmanship and people skills, and discover their God-given abilities and use them to benefit self and others.

The Pathfinder Club is for youth in grades 5-10 who want to discover their world and themselves. This organization is worldwide. By being a part of it, youth can learn Christian values; develop self-discipline; make friends; enjoy safe and exciting adventures; learn what teamwork is all about; prepare for church and community responsibilities; cultivate courage, self-reliance, honesty, loyalty, and kindness; learn under the guidance of mature Christian counselors; acquire hobbies and skills; and grow in an atmosphere of love and acceptance.

Pathfinder uniforms are worn by both the young people and the adult counselors. Club meetings and activities are held regularly, and the members work together in various activities ranging from community projects to nature and outdoor events.

Pathfinders also have the opportunity to participate in several conference-sponsored activities such as camporee, a yearly mission trip, teen snow outing, teen leadership training (grades 9-12), a fair, and Bible Bowl.

Through the Pathfinder clubs, young people can meet new friends, go camping, earn Adventist Youth honors, and enjoy fun activities. Most important, though, they have new opportunities to talk about and know God.
