What's New in Pathfinders & Adventurers

PATHFINDER OPEN HOUSE

Pathfinder Open House is an new event in the Pathfinder Calendar. It is an opportunity for Clubs to open their doors to the community to experience Pathfinders for a day/evening.

Cabramatta West Pathfinders was one of the Clubs that held their Open House event on February 22. “We had a first aid stall, knots and lashings demonstrations, and a campsite display. Seven new Pathfinders joined our club, one of which was non-Adventist,” says Brian Pichinte, Club Director.

SERVICE DAY

The Pathfinder and Adventurer Service Day is another new event. It will be replacing the Drug Free Walk for this year.

Serving others is a massive part of what it means to be an Adventurer and Pathfinder. This will be an important experience for the children, and for showing our communities and city what the Seventh-day Adventist Church is all about. Local Clubs will work together with their District Directors to organise a service activity for their region. Each individual child will be able to participate in the service activity. If you have any great ideas for your regions service activity, please let your District Director know soon.
