Left & Right is an optional award for Eager Beavers. The concepts of Left and Right are being learned at this age. Some Eager Beavers will have studied left and right in school already and will enjoy revisiting the topic. And for others this may still be a newer concept. Story: Left or Right? A…

Buttons Award: Busy Bee
Buttons is a fun crafty award for Busy Bees. Busy Bees awards are often a bit light on crafts, so I really appreciate this crafty award in the year’s mix of awards. Although this optional award will fit nicely anywhere in year, I chose to make the button craft a Christmas tree ornament and scheduled…
Thankful Heart – Eager Beavers
Thankful Heart is a lovely newer award for Eager Beavers. It’s so new, that if you find all of your award information from your manual, or clubministries.org, you may not have even heard of it yet! You can find the requirements at AdventSource and in the Adventurer Strong app. (Do you have the app? It’s…
Memory book: You Are Mine
I love creating a memory book for each child in Adventurers. As a parent, I adore not having more random pieces of paper laying around the house, and I enjoy paging through the binder and remembering the cute things my kids did. As a director, I love getting text messages a few days after investiture…
Playing with Friends – Eager Beavers
What is a friend? And more importantly, how do we make friends and treat them well? In this award, Eager Beavers learn about about friendship. We placed this award at the very beginning of the year in an effort to kickstart some wonderful new friendships in our club this year. Making friends and treating people…

The purpose of the God’s World award is to learn and review the story of Creation. Story: The Beginning (The Beginner’s Bible) To introduce the story of creation to our Eager Beavers, we…
Bulletin Board: You Are Mine
It’s a new Adventurer year, and that means it’s time for…a new look in the church hallway! My club meets during the week. Other than the occasional mention in the bulletin and maybe a sighting during Adventurer Pathfinder Sabbath, the church doesn’t see our Adventurers, and we are a little too easy to forget. The…
Adventurer Registration Forms
The beginning of the new Adventurer year snuck up on me! It feels like we just had investiture, but here I am pulling together registration and recruiting materials and consulting seven different calendars to plan out our Adventurer year. If you are stressing about all the beginning of the year paperwork, keep reading. We can…
Investiture Achievement – Busy Bees
IA or Investiture Achievement is the framework to our Adventurer year. It consists of both required activities that do not earn award patches and required awards. Sometimes we think of this as the boring “schoolwork” part, and it can be very tempting to skip this part to fit in more exciting awards. However, completing (or…
