YMCA Trailblazers 

For over 75 years, the Adventure Guides program has been building and strengthening the bonds of love, understanding and respect between parents and their children. You’ll discover a deeper sense of bonding than team sports or similar programs. This is your chance to share adventures in fun, learning and mutual understanding while building a friendship with your child that lasts a lifetime.

We’ll group parent-child pairs into “Circles” that meet on a regular basis in each others’ homes, usually biweekly or monthly. Occasionally, several Circles come together to participate in larger activities such as campouts, parties or parades. These outings are called Expeditions. Typical activities include ceremonies, games, crafts, songs, stories, skits and outdoor pursuits such as camping, hiking and swimming. As the kids progress through each step of the program, they become more involved in the planning and coordination of events.
