NRMC (National Rangers Ministry Camp)

PDF Print E-mail


National Rangers Ministry Camp provides instruction in basic outdoor skills and activities providing leaders with the skills needed to take their Ranger boys on exciting outpost activities outside their normal weekly meeting times. Instruction in effectively implementing the team/patrol method will be offered as a means to facilitate junior leadership development. Also, leaders will be challenged to connect with God and explore spiritual manhood.

The purpose of the National Rangers Ministry Camp is to provide interactive instruction in a wide range of fun and exciting activities that appeal to boys and young men. These will include basic “modern” camping, sports fun, trade skills, arts, and technology. These are activities that men and boys can do together and serve a very important purpose: to facilitate relationship and friendships that provide mentoring opportunities.  

You will be exposed to the Royal Rangers seven mentoring methods. You will receive instruction in and be immersed into the patrol method. You will experience the patrol system from the viewpoint of a boy or young man. This will allow you to better understand what it means to be a “boy-led adult-facilitated outpost.” 

Each trainee will have the chance to participate in leadership opportunities, develop friendships, and learn about teamwork through fun competition and shared goals. In addition, NRMC will model positive training techniques. Each patrol will have an opportunity to earn the bronze, silver, and gold patrol of excellence awards.

Most importantly, you will be inspired to connect with God and explore spiritual manhood. You will be challenged to be a man set apart for a life of Holy discipline, to embrace life’s greatest adventures, faithfully purse the beauty of your life, and forcefully advance the cause of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. You will be given opportunity to seek God for greater power to accomplish your role as a mentor of future men.

Some of the things you will be exposed to other than camping will be; Trade Skills, Archery, Air Gun, Art Skills, and Technology. There will be team building activities. All of these training activities have one thing in mind, reaching and connecting with the needs of today’s boy. If you have already attended NTC, you too can attend this camp to see the new direction that Rangers is heading in the area of training and so you will understand when your new leader tells you about the new NRMC. Be a part of Royal Ranger history and be one of the first leaders to attend this camp.

2011 Riflemen Territorial Rendezvous

PDF Print E-mail
Another Rendezvous has come and passed and it leaves me with a feeling of warmth because of the success of the event and regret that we have to wait another two years before we get to do it all over again.  I wanted to thank everyone who turned out for this event and especially say a huge thank you to Rick Johnson and Brett Pfingston for their hard work and dedication in the registration booth. I know they worked non-stop and that made my job easy when reviewing the totals for the event.  South Carolina, North Carolina and Puerto Rico should be very pleased with the way things turned out. Their hard work and dedication was evident by the way things did turn out. Did anyone catch a glimpse of Michael Keese, the South Carolina Director? If you did not it was because you were not looking. This man was as busy as any District Director that I have ever seen. He was non-stop working and was always looking for something else to do if he was still. You men In SC have a jewel in this man.

I also want to say what an outstanding job our first year Rep Dennis Molnar did in making things run smoothly. I know we had some glitches, but they were few and far between and when there were problems that arose, Dennis was right there taking care of it. Dennis was also responsible in getting our speaker for the event. Jim Kennedy did an outstanding job on the services and I know many lives were recharged and are ready to keep that FLAME BURNING FOR CHRIST.

All in all, I would that this was the absolute best Territorial Rendezvous that I have ever been associated with and I can’t wait for the next one. Oh yea, and I got to keep my hair. We had a grand total of 297, just (3) shy of cutting my old, tired, reddish brown hair. I’m so glad that that part is over. It was nerve racking for me Ha Ha.

Until we meet again may God richly bless you in all that you lay your hand to.

In His Service

2011 TERRITORIAL RENDEZVOUS WRAP-UP

Wow!  There is so much that can be said about the 2011 rendezvous.  Although I have attended many of our past rendezvous’ this was my first as the territorial rep.  First and foremost I must tip my hat to the territorial FCF team.  The work that Les, Brett and Ricky did even before the event started amazes me.  And I understand that their wives helped as well.  Their work at the registration table was awesome.  From what I saw it went off with little or no problems.  Everyone went the extra mile to make this a fantastic event.  With much success I might add.

Our theme was “share the flame” and Jim Kennedy our keynote speaker did a superb job getting that across.  Kyle Hulsey added to that on Friday morning.  The Holy Spirit ministered to us as we were challenged to “share the flame”, but also realizing that we must have something inside before we can share!

We had a record attendance of 297 with 1/3 being young bucks.  Beside the usual events there were a few new activities thrown into the mix.  The night shoot, bead guessing and photo shoot will be seen again.

I would be remiss if something was not said about our host chapters.  The site was very user friendly that added to the event and what can be said about those hot showers.  Toby and his crew did a fantastic job with the supply of fire wood and the chapter meal.  The Swamp Fox, Old Hickory and Aqueybana Chapters came to make for a very successful rendezvous.

I have learned a great deal from this being my first as the Rep and plan to make the 2013 rendezvous even better if that’s possible.  With the team that stands beside me that should not be hard to do.  I would like to thank my staff, the host chapters and the chapter presidents for all that they did.  The next two years will pass by before you know it so make plans now to attend Rendezvous 2013 with the Creek and Applachee chapters being our hosts.  Keep your powder dry and your eye on the target.
