For the majority of human history, a father was the main role model for his son.
Discussions about “toxic masculinity,” a blurring of gender lines, fewer and fewer fathers in the home, and the watering down or extinction of programs that train and equip boys to become men have left boys frustrated, fearful, and floundering in a sea of confusion about what it means to be a man.
Trail Life USA provides a Christ-Centered, Boy-Focused outdoor environment where life lessons are clearly taught, the boy once more wants to emulate the man, and the experience of adults is never obsolete.
Over 39,000 Trailman in over 900 Troops and Growing!
Trail Life USA is a easy-to-manage, Christ-centered, boy-focused outdoor adventure program empowering the church to grow boys to become men of character and conviction.
We will equip you and your Troop leaders with step-by-step guides to disciple boys to manhood.
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!
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 have done the heavy lifting by creating manuals and online training resources. Volunteers in your area are eager to share their skills with you, teaching you and your Troop leaders how to make outdoor adventure accessible and fun!
Costs are kept to a minimum!
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 know parents and Troop leaders have high demands on their time. That is why we provide simple programming guides that easy for anyone to deliver. Troop Leaders can enjoy what they love best: sharing life and mentoring boys to follow, trust, and experience a relationship with the God who created and loves them. Join hundreds of men across the country who are embracing the vision and using the outdoors to build the Kingdom!
