Attention:
UA Guides (formerly Indian Guides) will be continuing for the 2024-2025 Season. Anyone who renews their membership after June 1st 2024 will have an expiration date of August 31st 2025 (effectively their membership will be good for one more year).

If you want to participate in UA Guide Activities, you must sign up as a member


2024-2025 UA Guides

  • The "Tribes" are still referred to as "Sleuths" (a term for a group of Bears). All names of "Sleuths" within UA Guides remain the same as past years (Wyandotte, Super Ninjas etc...)
  • The Events will remain largely the same. Similar locations, structure and season, we plan on continuing with the new events from last year (Drive-In Movies, Geocaching, Tubing, Caverns and Fishing) 
  • Any 4th Grader Can Still Participate! Graduation occurs at end of 3rd Grade Year (during Spring Campout) but 4th Graders are allowed to continue on and enjoy the events
  • There is a Facebook Group (UA Guides) for all members to enjoy some additional information and photos. 
  • Strong emphasis remains that this is a group FOR THE KIDS. Events are created to provide a SAFE, EDUCATIONAL and FUN environment for them!
Be Safe, Explore, and Learn!
