Rules of Presentation and Conduct

We recall the importance of each Pathfinder to present themselves with their uniforms fully and correctly prepared. This aspect should be worked in advance by parents and Pathfinders leaders. On the other hand, participants enrolled in the Projetos JA, logistics and/or kitchen, can present themselves, if possible, with a JA garment, to present an image of strength and uniformity.

In addition, there are other rules that are mandatory in the activities of JA and include: the absence of pendants (piercings, etc.), reamers or other objects of extravagant adornment; decency in the clothes used; prohibition of entry of any alcoholic beverage, caffeine, tobacco or illicit substance.

Relationships in being and opinion must express all Christian ethics dignity and respect for the values of JA.
