GUIDES - Algonquin Longhouse

The Algonquin Longhouse, Inc. NFP proudly offers an opportunity for Parents and their Sons to enjoy the Indian Guide experience.  Our programs are based on the original Indian Guides developed over 80 years ago and are developed specifically for elementary school age children.

Comanche - Chicago, Homer Glen, Mokena, Momence, Justice, New Lenox, Oak Lawn, Orland Park, Palos Heights, Tinley Park, St. John (IN)

Illinois - Arlington Heights, Downer Grove, Elgin, Elk Grove Village, Hoffman Estates, Inverness, Northbrook, Palatine, Schaumburg

In addition, we have begun developing an Indian Guide Program for Mothers and their Sons.  We currently have two tribes in the Miami Nation.  Eventually we hope to have a dedicated Nation for our Moms & Sons Indian Guide Program.
