International Pathfinder Camporee, Thursday

August 15, 2019

For many Pathfinder clubs, this is their third full day in Oshkosh. Schedules have been full of eating, sleeping, walking, pin trading, honor classes, service activities and, of course, the big evening programs. North Pacific Union Conference clubs had their turn on the parade grounds on Wednesday. Some Northwest Pathfinders have indicated their desire to be baptized. They will be included in a special baptismal portion of the program on Friday evening.
