OUR GROUPS

The Royal Rangers program at a local church is referred to as an "outpost" and may consist of one or more groups. Each group follows a program of activities based on the interests and abilities of boys in that group. The links below provide details on the advancement system used in each group:

ROYAL RANGERS ALUMNI

The RRA exists for the purpose of mobilizing former or retired Royal Rangers leaders so that they may continue their involvement in the ministry, and to provide opportunities for fellowship and ministry with other members of the RRA. Leaders who reach the age of retirement often undergo medical trials or face other difficulties. They can easily begin to feel unneeded by the Royal Rangers ministry. The truth is they have a wealth of knowledge and experience. Many are willing and able to serve on a limited basis. The RRA provides the means whereby these leaders can remain active within their own time and physical constraints. Their continued ministry is a great asset to Royal Rangers and provides each individual much needed fellowship, prayer, and support. 

RRA MEMBERSHIP REQUIREMENTS 

  1. Be 18 years of age or older

  2. Be a former Royal Rangers leader (male or female) or formerly involved as a boy in Royal Rangers

PATHFINDER CHAPTER

 
 

Frontiersmen Camping Fellowship (FCF) is a special program of Royal Rangers that provides men and boys with additional opportunities to develop specialized outdoor skills based on the lore and traditions of the early American frontiersmen.
