Purpose
The purpose of the Y-Guide Program is to foster understanding and
companionship between father and son.
Slogan:
"Pal's Forever"
The slogan, "Pal's Forever", does not mean that father &
son relate to each other as equals, such as to boys who are pals. Rather,
it means that father and son have a close, enduring relationship in which
there is communication, understanding, and companionship. The Y-Guide
program encourages such a relationship by providing a means for father and
son to share enjoyable experiences, to observe and learn about one
another, and to develop mutual respect.
Aims
1. To be clean in body and pure in heart.

forest, field, and stream.
Pledge
Oh Great Spirit, guide us Father and Son, with friendly service to
each other, to our tribe, to our community, seek a world, pleasing to the eye
of the Great Spirit.
