Investiture and Time on the Lake

5/21/2023

The SAIL Pathfinders marked the end of the Pathfinder year with the Investiture Ceremony, marking their achievements throughout the year, and investing them in their next class rank. We were honored to have our Area Coordinator present for the ceremony, and to pin each of the Pathfinders for their new achievement class. Prior to the ceremony, the Pathfinders led a special church service, and received a message charging them to tell their story. To round out the weekend and Pathfinder Year, the SAILs hit the lake (well, river actually) for Kayaking, an activity several said was better than our long hikes...

It is time for a summer break, but we are already looking forward to next year, when we will prepare for the International Pathfinder Camporee in Wyoming!

Wrapping up the Year

With the end of the school year comes the end of the Pathfinder year. The SAILs used our last two meetings to finalize work on some honors (Hymns, Digital Photography, and Water Science), and to have some team-building and friendly competition activities. In between, the SAILs helped pack more than 1000 bags of literature, toiletries, socks, and snacks for the Prison Ministries, which delivered the Bags of Hope to a local women's prison for Mothers Day. In our last meeting of the year, the SAILs competed in a marshmallow tower challenge, and demonstrated fire building forms with pretzels, a tasty way to test skills. The SAILs will hold their Investiture service this Sabbath, after serving many roles in the Church service, and will celebrate the end of the year with a final outing this weekend.

We want to thank everyone for their support of the SAIL Pathfinder Club this year, and are looking forward to next year when we will attend the International Camporee in Wyoming!

Stand Out! Texas Conference Camporee

In early April, the SAIL Pathfinders joined thousands of other Pathfinders from across Texas for the 2023 Texas Pathfinder Camporee. themed Stand Out! Despite some rain, mud, and wind, the SAILs were able to set up camp, join in various activities and events, enjoy time in nature, and join in the uplifting and inspiring worship services. Here are what some of the SAILs had to say about their time at Camporee.

Our Pathfinders set up tents in the rain without complaining, were able to be creative in eating supper without their mess kits, & cheerfully tried new food experiments. Through mud and sunshine they tried their best at events, made friends, enjoyed the beauty of Lake Whitney and listened intently to the inspirational speaker. It was an adventurous and fun weekend!
The Lake Whitney Stand Out Camporee was a very fun experience. One of the things I liked was the sermon because the speaker was very real with his words. Also I liked how the writs bands would synchronize and shine.
My experience at the Stand Out Camporee was nice. Miss Linda, Ashley, Rebecca, and Hannah went down to the lake and it was a nice refresher.
Camporee was a lot of fun. I enjoyed the service the most, and meeting other clubs. Very, very, very cold, rainy, muddy, sometimes warm, but fun overall. 7.4/10. I would go again.
At the Camporee we cooked, worshipped, socialized, had fun, etc. It was a great experience for me. My favorite part of the Camporee was going to Lake Whitney. The lake was so pretty, we all tried to skip rocks on the lake.
The Stand Out Camporee was very nice. Lots of games and a lot of Pathfinders.
We went to origami and the Good Samaritan, and sang and prayed.
