*fROM DEEP hOLIDAY ROUTINE WITH no spellcheck!<g> This may be part of the great changes comming.. Rangers has allways selected Patrol leaders and have never assigned responsibilities to them. We have allways run the outpost as one group with the Commander as leader.. Dicipline administrater and advancement sign-off dude. I call this form of management "Leader-Led" as opposed to "Boy Led" The yeild from this is that all "boy" jobs lack respect by the back row Rangers.. and they are who we need to "enguage".. My plan is thus.. based on NTC Training.. Make Sr.Guide do the job we think of as "Commander"... I saw adults should be silent and invisible in the weekly meetings promoteing good beahvior of course.. and doing the jobs of councilor. Yes adlults drive and have money<G> *But planning where to go, what to do when you get there and what to eat and how to cook ect. are all valuible "teachible moments" that Rangers has overlooked as we attempt to get them to that council fire for a salvation message. How much better the "sermon" will be after knowing you as a boy... have made your camp the best you can and earned the respect that comes with being a real part of a group- a Patrol! Bravo for the Patrol system.. My future involvement in Royal Rangers is tied to makeing this happen. No "patrol system?" ->A No.1<- Charter member FCF is history.
