New Outpost of Excellence Award/Outpost of the Year |
|
|
|
At next year's RRGM conference, we will be introducing a new award and prize for the Pen. Florida District Outpost of the Year. We will base much of the decision on the work the outpost does throughout the year. The OOE Award is a good indicator of the outpost and the success they are having. Any finalist that we receive will also be discussed within the leadership at the section/division level.
Just a note on the applying points, since we have moved the RRGM Conference into early August, that event will continue to be the springboard for the Royal Ranger year, September thru August. Thus, points can be applied the same way. So points that are earned starting now (9-1), we will honor and can be applied to the 2011 form.

National Royal Ranger Week |
|
|
|
|
October is fast approaching and the first full week in October each year is National Royal Rangers Week. This is a time when many churches across the country, and indeed around the world, recognize the Royal Rangers ministry in a special way. Often, churches will recognize Royal Rangers during a service, or an outpost will have a special campout or plan a special community outreach. The week is a great time to promote Royal Rangers both inside AND outside of the local church environment.
In conjunction with National Royal Rangers Week, the following Friday and Saturday have been designated as the National Prayer Vigil.
The national office has prepared a list of ten things your church can do to promote Royal Rangers during National Royal Rangers Week. The list is not all inclusive. The ideas to promote Royal Rangers in your community are only limited by your imagination! Please click here to download the list. |

Interview with National Commander |
|
|
|
After the recent appointment of Doug Marsh to the National Commanders position we contacted him to get an interview. We asked him about his personal life, education, and thoughts on Rangers. I think we have some very exciting times coming in the future of Royal Rangers. Pray for Commander Marsh as he continues to lead us. |
