^h English (en)	Norm Middag was also the originator of the 1991, 1992, and 1993 “Witness Through Rose Parade” floats sponsored and decorated by Pathfinders. Special pins representing the floats were made for each of the three years that the SDA Church had a float, for the purpose of pin trading at the Tournament of Roses Parade.In 1996 the Pathfinder Pin Trading School was introduced by John Swafford, Pathfinder Director for the Georgia-Cumberland Conference (GCC), located in the Southern Union (SU) of the NAD. John and his family had attended the Summer Olympics in Atlanta that year where pin trading was a very popular activity, and they went to Coca Cola’s "Pin Trading School" that taught how to go about pin trading. He decided that it would be a good idea to form a “Pathfinder Pin Trading School” to offer guidelines to the Pathfinders, as some individuals were misusing pin trading. The GCC and the SU were supportive of this idea, and the first Pathfinder Pin Trading School was held at the October 1996 SU Camporee in Cherokee, North Carolina. John Swafford, along with his family, taught this first school. They had a classroom setting where they promoted the idea to "Have Fun, Be Fair, and Be Friendly" with the aid of a video made by Jamie Arnall, Director of the GCC Communications Department, with the assistance of Fred Fuller, Director of Cohutta Springs Camp, and his 1996 camp staff. A “Pin Trading School” pin, graduation certificate, and a “Fun Fair Friendly” imprinted pencil were given to those who attended the classes. GCC has sponsored Pathfinder Pin Trading Schools at GCC, SU and international camporees since then (as of 2013).
