ADVENTURE GUIDES
How do I join Adventure Guides? The best way to become a part of Adventure Guides is by starting your own tribe. There are several ways to do this. First, ask your child for a list of 15 of their friends that they would like to have in their tribe. Then call each of their parents and ask them to be a member of your tribe. This way, your child is already familiar with the other kids in the tribe. Another way to start your own tribe is by asking your friends, neighbors, or members at your church. This is especially good if you are new to the area as it allows you to meet other families with children the same age as yours. A good, strong tribe should be at least 6-10 dads. And remember…don’t be afraid to ask mom! We all know they are the ones in charge!! Once you have a group of dads together, call the Adventure Guides Program Office at (336) 721-2100 x2059 to set up a time for your tribe’s orientation. Here Program Registration Forms (found under the forms tab above) can be turned in, manuals and yearly patches are received, and an overview and training of the program will be given. Once all of these have been completed, you are officially part of the Adventure Guides Saura Nation! Congratulations and How-How! It is December already…can I still join? Of course you can! Obviously, your first option is to start your own tribe. If this is not possible, you can always join an existing tribe. However, this is not the easiest, quickest, or guaranteed way. First, call the Adventure Guides Program Office so we can get your child’s information in order to find a relevant tribe for you. In order for a new member to join an existing tribe, each member of the existing tribe must agree to add another member. This potentially could take at least four weeks since tribes meet only once a month. We want to make sure that both the tribe and the new member are happy and ready to go before we progress further in the process. Once this is complete, the Program Office will give the new potential member the contact information of the Chief. After they have spoken, we will then finalize the registration process by turning in the proper registration forms and receiving your manual, patches, and orientation. Feel free to contact the Adventure Guides Program Office any time! (336)721-2100 x2059 How-How!
