Because Pioneer Clubs is a relationship-oriented program, we recommend one leader for every 8 to 10 club members. Young children should have a smaller ratio. Parents, husband-wife teams, senior adults, and singles make great leaders. Don't forget to include teenagers as assistant leaders. You can easily adjust the material to adapt to your specific needs.
Materials are simple to understand and communicate to children.
The supplies required are inexpensive and easy to round up, and leader preparation time is reasonable. Each child has a handbook designed for their specific age group. In addition, Bible Memory cards are available to help them learn verses weekly. Leaders will find a host of helpful supplementary resources available in the Pioneer Clubs catalog. In a recent Pioneer Clubs survey of parents, we found that both churched and unchurched parents value the experience their children have in club.
