Guiding was often a sideline activity next to logging, prospecting and trapping. It was these early woodsmen and guides who, challenging themselves to jousts, combined activities like cross cut sawing, canoe racing and fly casting as a display of their skills and abilities. Although time has blurred our guiding heritage the N.S.G.A. continues to preserve the culture and traditions of this bygone era through the Annual Guides' Meet. Guides' Meets feature traditional sing songs, pageants, auctions, and food sales. The N.S.G.A. Annual Guides' Meet also includes an entertaining historical reinactment as well as daily live music and evening dances.
Overnight camping is available for all participants and guests.
With the exception of rifle shooting all sport events are held at the Hibernia Twin Lakes Campground.
