I have been away for about a week and have just finished reading 200 or so e-mails.  Many of them concerning the new program.  I even looked at the 49 slides and have the following four things to say about it.
    1.  If they can get all the commanders to go through it all, it will be a miracle.
    2.  Slide #4.  From what I read there, I would guess that you can be a Royal Ranger and NOT camp.  If this were to be true, is camping still going to be a requirement for the Gold Medal, (patch) of achievement.
    3.  On slide #20 it shows a picture of an awards vest for 3, 4, and 5th graders.  This is 8, 9, and 10 years old, at least here in Michigan.  This vest has a Camporama patch on it.  Does this mean that 8 year olds can now attend camporama.  This would be an important thing to know seeing that applications will be due is less than 2 years.
    4.  About one-third of the way through, it occurred to me that I thought I was looking at a Boy Scout program with all the names, arrows, and patches.  I had to look at the URL address to be sure that I was still on the AG page.
    To me, if it works as an effective tool to reach, teach, and keep boys for Christ; then I am all for it.

Subject: [RR] New program slide show on line

Check out http://ag.org/royal-rangers/sld001.cfm for a sneak preview of what the AG USA National Royal Ranger staff is thinking of. Remember, this is a work in progress, but it should give you an idea of the direction they are considering. May God grant them wisdom as they consider the issues and seek to improve the program and ministry of Royal Rangers.
