I'm going to throw out a sticky ball again and be direct.
Royal Rangers was laid out on the table and disected up.. for the pleasure of Non-Royal Ranger authority. Perhaps, the scope of straight arrow to AST was too broad for the full development of the program and facilitaion on a local level. *That said.. RR started as a lead-in to a older boy program that had very much the same pool to draw from as Boy Scouts. Along the way, at every twist in the trail.. Royal Rangers has had to justify it's mission statement with those in Ministry oversight. With a distinct culture and doctrine that holds Christ at the center of every decision, the success of a high adventure program has not been primary. Other trade offs have been made in the implimentation of the patrol system and effective development of leadership. *When you look at Euro-Rangers.. you see them embraceing something USA Rangers traded away for a primarily evangelical agenda. When Euro Rangers visit the USA National Camp.. *They must wonder where all the adventure has gone<G> US Rangers is a top-down Adult led effort.. where any boy is simply told what to do and not allowed to be or do his best as a Royal Ranger. Euro-Ranger leaders hold a different attitude.. one of a "scouting spirit" where they mix in with the kids to assist them to achieve something and gain self-confidence at a task. *The true worth of the program for them is found in what it does inside the heart, from relationships and from challanges. All this has not been addressed by US Royal Rangers. *Given the chance, I'd choos Euro-Rangers over the US version. -> A No.1<- FCF July 1966 Wilderness member NTC LTC LMA --- Mark W Jones <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Stefan.
