As Navigators, boys (ages 11-13, similar to boy scouts) gain understanding of their values and beliefs under the guidance of godly male role models through being responsible in outdoor adventures and in their home and school life. They explore areas of interest and earn Trail Badges for advancement. (Recruit Rank, Able Rank, Ready Rank) [Navigators Advancement Information]
As Adventurers, young men (ages 14-17, similar to boy scouts) mature in wisdom and faith through more difficult challenges and leadership activities with Christian men walking alongside. They plan and lead outdoor events and large projects while exercising leadership positions in the Troop, even mentoring some of the younger Trailmen.
