Saber qué hacer para superar el miedo cuando está perdido. Conocer al menos cuatro maneras de señalar cómo pedir ayuda cuando está perdido en lugares deshabitados/bosque.

Overcoming fear when lost

Many unprepared people are overcome by fear when they are in a situation they do not know how to handle. Studying the appropriate response to an emergency (like being lost in the woods) will help you overcome fear. If you can control your fear, you can concentrate on doing the right things to solve your problem rather than on your fear.

Trate de respirar profundamente y deliberadamente. Puede hablar con sus compañeros (si es aplicable) y calmarse unos a otros. También puede intentar la oración.

Aquí hay algunas cosas que se pueden hacer cuando uno se pierde:

Signaling for help

Call for help with a cell phone

These days, this is probably the most effective method of signaling for help. If you find yourself in trouble and need help, the cell phone is probably the first thing you will think of, and rightfully so. Voice communication is a very effective method of communicating with others. If you are in an area with a weak signal and voice communication is spotty, don't forget about text messaging. Texting can be successful even when voice communications fail because the phone will continue sending the message until it gets through.

Blow a whistle

You can blow a whistle much louder than you can yell. Furthermore, you can blow on a whistle repeatedly over a long period of time without getting a sore throat.

Conocer al menos cuatro actividades seculares y cuatro actividades de sábado para hacer en un lugar al aire libre si tiene un día lluvioso.

Secular Activities

• Play board games.
• Collect and purify rainwater.
• Bring kazoos and do karaoke (everyone gets a kazoo except the singer).
• Work on the Weather honor.
• Play I Spy. Whoever is "it" chooses something, notes its color, and says "I spy with my little eye something red." (Assuming the noted color was red). Then have each person take turns guessing what it was.
• 20 Questions. It chooses an item and will answer up to 20 yes/no questions about what it is until someone guesses it.
• Charades

Sabbath Activities

Hacer lo siguiente en un lugar al aire libre:

6a

Planificar, organizar y enseñar una especialidad de la naturaleza a un grupo de jóvenes.

Ideally, the nature honor you teach should draw on the resources available in the chosen outdoor setting. For this reason, you may need to visit the site to see what kinds of flora and fauna are available for a nature study ahead of time. While some nature honors are not dependent on the presence of natural resources (such as the Weather honor), others (such as the Ferns honor or the Edible Wild Plants honor) will benefit greatly from their presence. Don't just hope for the best - prepare! Consult the Nature chapter of this book for more information.

6b

Ayudar en la enseñanza de los requisitos de campamentos en cualquiera de las especialidades y/o los requisitos de las clases JA a un grupo de jóvenes.

The first four AY Classes require that the Pathfinder earn Camping Skills I (Friend), Camping Skills II (Companion), Camping Skills III (Explorer), or Camping Skills IV (Ranger). The Voyager class must earn Fire Building & Camp Cookery plus Frontier Voyager classes can also optionally earn the Orienteering, Camp Craft, Winter Camping, or Backpacking honors. Frontier Guides must choose from Pioneering, Winter Camping, Backpacking, Wilderness Living and this honor (Outdoor Leadership).

6c

Determinar dónde se encuentra el hospital más cercano.

Traditional methods

You can get an atlas or a map of the area, familiarize yourself with the nearby towns and cities. Then consult the business listings in a phone book looking under hospital until you find which one is closest to your site.

Using Google Maps

One way to do this is by using the "Find businesses" feature of Google Maps. Enter "hospital" in the "What" box (which appears first), and the location or address of your outdoor setting in the "Where" box (which appears second).

Using Mapquest

You can use the "get directions" feature at Mapquest.com. Under the "starting location", enter the address of the outdoor setting. Under the "Ending Location" enter "hospital" in the "place name" box, and the same city or town as the starting location - even if there is no hospital in that town, it will return the nearest hospital to you. It will display a list of hospitals and veterinary clinics, ordered by distance (nearest first). Check that the facility you choose is indeed a hospital for humans.

6d

Determinar dónde se pueden obtener la asistencia más cercana de la policía o de un guarda bosques/parques.

If your outdoor setting is under the jurisdiction of a park ranger organization, they would be your primary source of help if there is an emergency. Otherwise, you should use the same techniques outlined for finding a hospital to find the nearest police station.

Normas de conducta

• Treat everyone with respect.
• Do not go off alone.
• Let your counselor know where you are going, who you will be with, and when you will be back. Never leave without permission.
• Always go in threes.
• Do not light fire unless an adult is present.
• Practice fire safety.
• Practice axe, hatchet, and knife safety.
• Wear a PFD (Personal Flotation Device) when using a boat of any type.
• Always leave an area cleaner than you found it.
• Remember that medical assistance is more difficult to get and takes longer to arrive in wilderness areas (what's the address of some point on a trail?) Because of this, ratchet up the caution level. Don't take chances.
• Keep down the noise level so you do not disturb others.
• Make sure you are welcome to return.
• Do not take, destroy, or damage facilities, plants, or animals.
• Report accidents as soon as possible.
• Do not trespass.

8f

Correcta observancia del sábado

As an outdoor leader, you need to remember that the people you are leading will have different ways of observing the Sabbath. Most Adventist children of Pathfinder age will observe it as they have been taught by their parents, and it is important that you not undermine the parents' teaching in this regard. "Liberal" parents will not mind if you lead their children in conservative Sabbath observance, but "conservative" parents are likely to get very upset if engage in activities they are forbidden to do at home. Because of this, you are encouraged to adopt a conservative approach to Sabbath observance when you are leading them. You should do this even if none of the children in your care come from conservative homes, because if a new one joins you who is conservative, you will put that child at a serious disadvantage when you suddenly have to change the "rules". The Sabbath will then become a burden both to the new child and to the others who have been in the club for a while.

Likewise, you should be careful about telling children from liberal families that their observance of the Sabbath is inadequate or flawed. Rather, you should tell them "the club does not observe the Sabbath that way" without making a judgment on the way the child has been taught at home.

Properly observed, the Sabbath is not to be a burden.

"Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy." Here, "holy" means "set aside for a special purpose." The Sabbath is set aside as a day for us to learn more about God and to ponder His Creation. Just as a park is a place set aside for special activities, the Sabbath is "a park in time." We do not build homes, offices, or factories in parks, nor do we engage in everyday tasks on the Sabbath. We put aside our homework, housework, and our livelihood-work and take a break from it. This is a gift from God.

The Sabbath is a memorial to the creative power of God, so that really makes it a perfect day to acquaint ourselves and others with God's Creation.
