Welcome to the Y-Indian Guide Website

The Y-Indian Guides program is composed of the Indian Guides for kids Kindergarten-Grade 3 and the Trailblazers for kids Grade 4-up.

The Y-Indian Guides is a Father / Child program where fathers and their kids can have fun doing various activities. Fathers "guide" the development of their children through fun activities.

Groups of families meet approximately every month as a "Tribe" for game, craft, or outdoor activities. All the local tribes join together for various "Federation" events during the year.

Tribes are usually groups of 8-12 "braves" (boys) or "princesses" (girls) that live in one area. The father (or other adult) must be present at all activities.

This website serves groups in the Columbia, SC area for the Three Rivers Federation. Annual program cost is $20 for YMCA members, $60 for non-members, $10 for each additional child.
