*Just an Update that.. explaining the following to parents resulted in
instant understanding of what the achievement program is attempting to do.
It seems to me that as an experiment... this will promote achievement in
advancement as well as bond the Outpost togather in a wholesome manner.
*I may even call the "Dad patrol" the Outpost Council<G>
Thanks Cdr. Larry Wasson for going along...

> 1. Use "workbook" instead of the "after meeting shuffle."
> 2. Have parent affirm the Rangers achievement.
> 3. Review by Commander one on one.
> 4. Ranger stands before "Dad Patrol" as a "Board of Review"
> and double check on progress-attitude and achievement.

> I've also started having a regular "Patrol Corners".
