Molding Boys
In the outdoors boys are engaged in real-world challenge, find opportunity to achieve significant accomplishment, and develop character and leadership in a hands-on manner.
Engaging Men
Through adventure, camaraderie, and meaningful service, men discover how to make a difference as they nurture spiritual growth, teach life lessons, and mold boys in their community to become bold, courageous, godly men.

Connecting Families
“Ever since that first adventure together, my dad and I have grown closer and closer. I can honestly say that he’s moved from being just my dad to being one of the closest people to me."
Trail Life is an easy-to manage, Christ-centered, boy-focused outdoor adventure program empowering the church to grow boys to become men of character and conviction.
The adventure, character, and leadership focus of Trail Life USA attracts boys and their families and keeps them active for years to come. Parents love the character and leadership training. Boys love the adventure and the robust awards program!
Join a remnant of men rising up to grow generations of courageous young men who honor God, lead with integrity, serve others, and experience outdoor adventure.
Entire families are being transformed as boys join a Troop, create life-long bonds and are drawn into a relationship with Christ.
New to outdoor skills like camping and hiking? No problem! We equip Churches and Troop leaders with step-by-step guides as well as online and in-person training to mentor boys to Godly manhood. Volunteers in your area are eager to share their skills with you, teaching you and your Troop leaders how to maximize outdoor adventure as a safe, accessible, fun tool to grow young men to godly manhood!
How much does it cost to start a troop?
Only $99 begins the chartering process and places essential resources to begin a Troop in your hands.
The entire chartering process can be completed in less than a month for under $425.
We recommend you start with the following:
- You! (the Charter Leader)
- Your church pastor
- 5 additional men who will be trained to help lead your troop
Trail Life USA has a Proven Process for developing boys into godly men.
When you add Trail Life as a ministry, you're equipping your church with the resources it needs to transform not only young boys, but entire families.
Boys involved in Trail Life (as well as Troop Leaders) create life-long bonds and are drawn into a relationship with Christ.
The Trail Life Method empowers boys and helps them define their mission. Boys are guided competently by adults who have been trained, background-checked, and educated in child safety and youth protection. When boys are empowered and provided with proper structure, they rise to the occasion and conquer significant challenges. As boys grow in confidence, character, and leadership, they experience intentional rites of passage that recognize their progress and mark steps in their journey to manhood.
