South Louisiana Pathfinders Go Camping!
Baton Rouge, La. » On November 18-20, 2011, the South Louisiana Pathfinders held their Area Camporee at Fontainebleau State Park. The clubs that attended were Baton Rouge, Gonzales, and New Orleans, and each one enjoyed 100 percent attendance.
On Sabbath, we had camp inspections and a parade to Sabbath School and church. We thanked the Lord for the beautiful weather, which could not have been more perfect—cool and sunny. For Sabbath School, we divided the Pathfinders into their AY classes and had them work as a team to role-play Bible stories to complete a part of the AY requirements.
The Baton Rouge Red Sticks led the church service, and Gonzales led the song services. On Sabbath afternoon, we hiked a trail and collected different leaves while answering questions for our tree honor. The park provided us with a booklet of the trees in the park and we used it to identify the leaves we collected. The New Orleans Pathfinders presented our vespers. Saturday night was spent in fellowship and playing ball and other games.
On Sunday morning, our activity day, we had knot-tying relays, an Indian drag race, drill demonstrations and the compass puzzle. Everyone had a wonderful time and made great friends.
