Currently YA is:
Founder and President |
Terry started in ministry over 25 years ago and was ordained in 1985. He has written and delivered over 6000 sermons all across America and around the world. He served as lead pastor in churches in Tennessee, Hawaii, California, Florida and the Bahamas. He has done missionary work in Africa, Europe, India, and Home Missions in Alaska and Hawaii.
Terry's passion for helping young adults is very personal. He started his ministry speaking to prisoners and drug addicts. And while still in his teen years Terry traveled the world speaking in churches and later as a missionary. So after seeing first hand the destruction in so many young lives and compared to the blessing of helping others in third world countries as a young person himself, Terry decided to start Young Adventurers to inspire youth and young adults to use their lives doing good, and pursuing their dreams! Today, Young Adventurers creates unique opportunites for young and old alike to experience the "adventure" of helping others. Currently YA is producing a television show entitled Be Someone's Hero! A show that highlights the amazing lives and work of people helping special needs kids. On February 11th. Young Adventurers presents IMAGINE. A Multimedia Stage Production featuring the amazing Fushu Daiko, Larry Johnson of Richard Street's Temptations, the One Vision One Love dancers and Terry Bomar. This unique "production with a purpose" will have you laughing, crying, and shouting for more! You will leave with a smile on your face, a "wow" in your heart, and new motivation for your future! In 2011 Young Adventurers will begin a new travel program for those interested in Voluntourism. Destinations include Alaska, Africa, Europe, Israel and China. This is a return to its roots. Since 1992, YA has conducted Travel Camps for young and old covering over 150,000 miles across America & Alaska! Terry founded Young Adventurers in February of 1992. Since that time Young Adventurers has worked in 7 states and 5 countries. YA has worked with experienced volunteers in radio, television, video and film production, and with Adventurers like Jean Michele Cousteau (of Ocean Ambassadors), NFL, NBL, and PGA Sports figures, Indy 500 drivers, NHRA drivers, Hollywood actors, entertainers, artists, photographers and others that have given their time and talent to help YA serve young people. YA has a proven track record of success working with over 12,000 children and their families through public and private schools, the Broward County School System, the Broward County Sheriffs Dept., churches and civic groups. Young Adventurers has conducted projects around the world, including assisting schools, orphanages, hospitals, churches and feeding centers reaching as far as Nigeria, South Africa, India, Nepal and in several places across America. Mr. Bomar has been a long time friend of Michael Josephson, Founder of the Josephson Institue of Ethics, and YA was one of the early member organizations of the CHARACTER COUNTS! Coalition that today represents over 1000 Organizations. And Young Adventurers was born February 12th. 1992 not as a religious organization but rather as a nonprofit promoting Character and Vision. In the Spring of 2009 Terry and Dan Haggerty joined together to form Blind Squirrel Entertainment. A company dedicated to Faith and Family films and entertainment. |
