Who Can Join an Adventurer or Eager Beaver Club?

Any child from grades K-4 who promises to abide by the Adventurer Pledge and Adventurer Law can join an Adventurer Club. Although the Adventurer Club is sponsored by the Seventh-day Adventist Church, children of any faith are encouraged to join.

Membership Guidelines...

1. Children in grades K-4 are eligible (Pre-Kindergarten children may also join in on the Eager Beavers class, but they must be at least 4 years of age by September 1 of the registration year).
2. Club activities include crafts, outings, regular club meetings and the Adventurer must agree before joining the club to participate and cooperate in their activities.
3. Members must be faithful in attendance.  Our club does not set limits or requirements on attendance, although parents and members are strongly encouraged to attend every meeting in order to complete the requirements for achieving Adventurer awards and Eager Beaver chips.
4. The Adventurer's parents must be willing to cooperate with the regulations and activities of the club. At times they will be asked to supply money and time to support their child's membership.
5. Members must pay a registration fee of $25/child.
6. Each Adventurer should have access to a complete Adventurer uniform (purchase a full-dress uniform from AdventSource or another venue that offers the proper style of uniform).  Each child must come to meetings and club sponsored events in full-dress uniform or field uniform (T-shirt & shorts/pants), as directed by the club director.
7. Adventurers are expected to obey all regulations, instructions, and orders of the Adventurer staff.
8. Clubs members must be willing to participate in community projects and outreach programs (can collection, Ingathering, etc.)
9. Adventurers must learn and keep the Adventurer Pledge and Adventurer Law.
