*Here's mine.. The format or content of a National Program called Royal Rangers was never intended to be Democratic. While a body meets yearly to represent regional intrests (the NRRC), it's obvious that the former Gold Track was the outcome of that "Team" effort and the new program a reaction to challanges placed from outside the NRRC. While in the past, individuals influenced and were granted a hand in developing program content, the final decision to alter the program was the duty of the NRRC, National Staff reporting to: Rev.Thomas Trask. Seeking input was done by representation, without feeling the need to fully take a Democratic vote of all participants. That said, there was great effort to explain the need for change and to win your support. *I'm sure you may remembered an attempt to share the program development with the regional roll outs by members of the National Staff with the "evolveing Powerpoint" presentation. It's true that what resulted is a compromise position, to answer many concerned "Outside" individuals over Traditional Royal Rangers leadership, and that might be seen as a turn away from Democratic RR values. Therefore No "formal" vote is needed. Your participation is desired, but if you find a hitch in your get-a-long you are free to vote with your feet.
