For the majority of human history, a father was the main role model for his son.
Today, too many boys are turning to virtual worlds of television, video games, digital media, and the internet to find realms they can conquer and areas where they can excel. The result of this virtual conquest is often apathy, apparent rebellion, or outright resistance to real-world challenge.
Trail Life USA is where boys thrive! Adults are equipped to lead a program in a structured outdoor environment where boys are engaged in real-world challenge and experience camping, hiking, and fishing; they develop skills in riflery, archery, and canoeing; and learn character and leadership in a practical hands-on manner that is naturally engaging.
In the outdoors, boys naturally look to emulate men and the experience of adults is never obsolete. Boys find mentors, fathers and sons connect, important relationships are fostered, and boys find opportunity to achieve significant accomplishment.
Engage Men...
Build Boys...

More than 40,000 Trailman in over 950 Troops and Growing!
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.
We do the heavy lifting!
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.
