Adventure Programs

YMCA Adventure Guides & Princesses

What is the Adventure Program?

Adventure Programs are a Father-Child program where dads gather in local “circles” and have adventures with their kids. Camping, service projects, leadership experiences, and character building programs all culminate in the ultimate goal of the Adventure Programs (Adventure Guides, Adventure Princesses, and Trailblazers).  These programs give fathers and their children, ages 5 to 14, the unique opportunity to participate in activities that teach character development, build leadership skills, and encourage positive behaviors. Whether it’s camping, bowling, horseback riding, or attending local sporting events, children build stronger bonds with their fathers and make memories that will last a lifetime.
