In less than a month, the International Pathfinder Camporee will have moved west. For the first time in the event’s history, Gillette, Wyoming, will host the camporee’s week of learning, worship, and community service for Pathfinders and their supporters. From August 5-11, 2024, roughly 60,000 young people from 100 countries will transform the Gillette Cam-Plex Facilities into a tent and RV city.


Over numerous site visits since 2020, camporee officials have found significant interest among community members in attending the nighttime mainstage events. However, because minors attend the camporee, background checks would be necessary for these additional guests. Thus, camporee leaders decided to host a “night at the camporee” on August 4. This special event will offer community members a 90-minute sneak peek of the “Believe the Promise” evening program, focusing on the inspiring story of the Old Testament character Moses.
