Throughout the weekend, your son will experience:
🔥 Adventure – Survival skills, obstacle courses, and wilderness challenges
🤝 Brotherhood – Deep connections with peers and mentors
🧭 Self-Discovery – Reflection, storytelling, and rites of passage ceremonies

✅ Courage to step into manhood

 

This weekend will awaken his potential, challenge his limits, and provide the tools to navigate the transition into adulthood with strength and clarity.

Who Leads This Experience?

Your son will be guided and supported by a dedicated team of experienced men, ranging from 18 to 80+ years old, who are committed to mentoring the next generation.

👥 Our team has over 100 years of combined experience in rites of passage work.
🛡️ Every mentor has passed background checks and volunteers their time.
🧭 These men are here to show your son his value and help him uncover his unique gifts to the world.

This is a community effort—every man here has chosen to invest in this work, just as your son will.
