A Rite of Passage for Your Son Sponsored by The Dad Edge

Empower Your Son to Step into Manhood with Confidence, Strength, and Purpose

As fathers, we want nothing more than to set our sons on a path to thrive in a world that increasingly undermines the essence of true masculinity. 

The April 12, 2025 Squire Program, sponsored by The Dad Edge, is a powerful 15-hour father-son experience in Holly Ridge, NC, designed to create lasting bonds and develop essential life skills that will shape your son into a man of integrity, strength, and purpose.

Why Your Son Needs This Experience

In today’s culture, boys are told that masculinity is outdated, often labeled as "toxic." Social media, mainstream culture, and even some educational institutions are working to downplay the values of resilience, leadership, and accountability.

If we allow society’s influence to be their only guide, our sons may grow into men who lack purpose, strength, and a clear sense of self.

This is where The Squire Program steps in.

Through a series of challenges and guided mentorship, the program provides your son with a structured rite of passage—a milestone moment that builds the foundational qualities of manhood: courage, responsibility, and servant leadership.

What Your Son Will Gain

By joining The Squire Program, your son will experience a powerful day that goes beyond any traditional father-son bonding activity.

Together, you will embark on a journey that teaches him to:

Stand as a Leader and Protector:


Develop the strength, humility, and integrity to lead, protect, and make positive impacts on his community.

Build Resilience and Self-Discipline:


Face challenges head-on, learn to stay calm under pressure, and choose purpose over comfort.

Value Honor and Duty:


Discover what it means to keep his word, to uphold strong values, and to honor his commitments to others.

This program doesn’t only change your son; it transforms your relationship, building a mutual respect that strengthens your family and inspires him to carry these principles forward in life.

The Father’s Role in The Squire Program

As a father, you are the linchpin of your son’s journey into manhood.

Through this program, you will guide him directly, setting the example he needs to follow. 

The Squire Program allows you to teach life’s essential skills—emotional intelligence,accountability, and practical problem-solving.

You will be right there with him, supporting him through physical and mental trials, sharing wisdom, and showing him what it means to be a man who serves, protects, and leads.

The Power of Brotherhood

The Squire Program is more than just a father-son experience. It’s an opportunity to forge connections with other fathers and sons on the same journey. 

Your son will leave with lifelong friends—young men who share his values and ambitions.

These relationships help build his sense of belonging, confidence, and commitment to something greater than himself.
