Treasure hunt
Fancy an adventure? Then take part in the treasure hunt organised for you by the Swiss Scout Philatelic Association and the youth organisation of the Union of Swiss Philatelic Societies. Solve all the stamp puzzles and find the lost treasure of ‘ Finger-Way-Jack’! This is a fun way to experience BERNABA'25.
The Story of Finger-Way-Jack
A long, long time ago, a brave pirate called Finger- Way-Jack lived in our neighbourhood. He was not always fierce, but sometimes very kind, especially to his mother. He was always finding new treasures on his voyages across the wild seas. Nobody knew exactly where he had hidden them all, but it is rumoured that many are still buried here. One day he sailed away and never returned. But now we have discovered his mysterious treasure map!
Let's go on a Treasure Hunt!
Do you want to find Finger-Way-Jack's secret treasure together with us? Pack your courage and get ready for an adventure full of puzzles, fun and discoveries! Who knows what treasures and surprises await you. Let's go, pirates!
Creative Stamp Collages
Show your creativity! You can design great stamp collages alone or with friends. Collages can be created directly at the youth stand under the supervision of experienced youth leaders, but you can also design them yourself beforehand.
Works that are handed in at least one week before the start of the exhibition will be honoured by a jury and rewarded with attractive prizes.
Jury of the stamp collages
Over 40 collages were submitted for BERNABA'25.
The grand jury will take place on Friday, 16 May 2025, from 12:00 to 14:00.
The first three winners will receive their prizes in cash. Be there and show what you've got! Further information: [email protected]
