View the WAQ Activities Calendar (Google Calendar) to see what has already been scheduled by Units. (View calendar with Firefox, Chrome, or mobile device). Please call the office for availability if you are unable to view the calendar.

All reservations for WAQ activities must be made 14 business days prior to requested event

How To Get Your Unit Involved

Unit leadership will coordinate all WAQ activities for their respective platoon’s by reaching out to a WAQ program specialist to request an Activity Request Form. When filling out the request form and before submission, please keep in mind the following:

  1. The number of personnel listed on the request form needs to be a static number prior to the requesting of your event. How ever many people are listed is how many we expect to show up to the event.
  2. As this is considered a military appointment, and is supposed to go on your unit’s training calendar, each activity request form needs to be signed off on by your Company Commander
  3. All personnel will be expected to show up ready to participate because this event is considered your place of duty for the day.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to participate in the Warrior Adventure Quest?

The WAQ program is offered free of charge to all units.

How much notice for cancellation?

Each unit will receive a cancellation form to fill out should they need to cancel or reschedule their event, and notice should be given, at the least, 18 hours in advance for cancellationAnything less than 18 hours will need to be an email coming from the Company Commander to the program manager explaining the mission requirements, as any event booked through WAQ is considered a military function and resiliency training.

Is there anything else required of my unit once we reserve the dates for our activities?

There are 3 things required prior to event:

  1. The participating unit will also be required to provide an NCOIC and OIC to conduct a Leader Led After Action Debriefing (L-LAAD). The requirements of the L-LAAD will be discussed with a WAQ Program Specialist at our in-person training, held every other Monday of a month at 0900 (except on federal holidays). Our dates are planned through the rest of the calendar year, and you will need to attend any one session prior to your WAQ activity.
  2. Participating soldiers are required to take training regarding the Warrior Adventure Quest prior to their activity. Unit leaders will be given the materials to provide soldiers with this mandatory training regarding the Warrior Adventure Quest prior to their activities.
  3. An Attendance Roster is also required. Included in the attendance roster should be: First and Last name of participating soldier, and their rank.
