THE WEEKEND

Mentoring and rite of passage events are effective at assisting young men in their transition into manhood.

Where it all
Began!

Back in 1990 a group of men were discussing the challenges facing young men and their transition into manhood. The distractions and pitfalls that they are dealing with are many and varied.

Our culture does not formally acknowledge a transition into responsible adulthood. Sports, scouts, cadets, etc. activities form a rich learning ground of social skills, problem-solving, and growth experiences.

But more and more, the computer and social networks are enveloping our youth. It is amazing the number of young men that have never camped and never spent time in the wilderness.
