Commanders,

I received an article today in my email concerning a 29 year old Royal Rangers leader in Granite City, Illinois that has been indicted in a two-count indictment for production and possession of child pornography.  The police said Joseph Emil Klug “put a video camera in a tent, recorded a boy masturbating, edited video clips and stills and sent it out over the Internet.”1 The indictment states that Joseph Klug cut a hole in the front pouch of a green backpack in which he hid a mini video recorder. It is not clear if this occurred on a Royal Rangers or church event trip. Read the rest of this entry…

2009-2010 Chartering

CORRECTION: It was pointed out to me that the chartering period officially ends on October 15th and that this post was a day early, but I hope it lit a fire under those that are going to try to get in under the wire to make sure that ya’ll are chartered.

Well, the official chartering period is over (or will be in about half an hour from the time I publish this post), and the Waco section is officially 6 churches down in our chartering numbers currently.  As of 10:21 PM the National Royal Rangers Office showed First Assembly of God in Belton (Outpost 109), Praise Temple Assembly of God (Outpost 377), and Five Hills Assembly of God (Outpost 526) as being chartered.  I know some other churches were working on getting everything together to charter.  Just a reminder that to be eligible for the chartering discount at Winter Camp, your church must be chartered for the 2009-2010 charter year.  Otherwise, you will be charged the non-chartered fee at Winter Camp.

The National Royal Rangers Office has posted information on the national web site (royalrangers.ag.org) concerning the new Utility Uniform.  They have a PDF file that describes the proper method to wear the utility uniform and also the GPH numbers for the different uniform patches.  The utility uniform is not the only option open to your outpost.  With these changes to the uniform, we now have 4 types of uniforms: dress, formal, utility, and special.  More information about these types of uniforms can be found in the Seek and Save magazine article “Uniform Options.” Read the rest of this entry…

New FCF Web Site

Family Days brought with it many new memories and a time for new friendships to be formed as well as the rekindling of old friendships.  It also brought about a change to the online presence of the Shawnee Trail Chapter.  The new Shawnee Trail web site went live in conjunction with the FCF Family Days.  For years, the Shawnee Trail had pages on the district web site, but it was nothing more than a sub-section of the site.  It would occasionally suffer from neglect.  However, all that changed at Family Days this year.  The Shawnee Trail web site is now hosted at a brand new URL and the home of the Shawnee Trail web site can be found at fcf.ntxrr.org.  This new site and the completely new design were a result of the hard work of the FCF Sutler/Promotions, a position that was added to the FCF staff this year by FCF President Art “Flintlock” Sullivan at Pow Wow time in April and is currently held by David Trower.

I am blogging live from Lakeview Campground in Maypearl, TX, at the 2008 North Texas Junior Leadership Training Academy (NTX JLTA), where staff have been working since 8:00 this morning to get the camp ready for the boys to start arriving Sunday afternoon. Things are coming together and we are looking forward to having a great time at this years JLTA. We have boys from all across the district that will be attending different leadership camps this week ranging from Discovery Rangers through Expedition Rangers attending camps such as DTC, ATC, FBC, JTC, and AJTC [AMC was canceled due to low numbers]. These boys will have the opportunity to not only develop leadership skills while working together as a patrol, but also work on merits that tie into the objectives of their respective camps.

North Texas Junior Leadership Training Academy

June 22 – 27, 2008

The dates for the 2008 North Texas Junior Leadership Training Academy are quickly approaching. For the last 20 years North Texas has offered the Sarge Training Academy. This year we have changed some of the camps, and have changed the overall Academy name, but the fun, training, fellowship, and spiritual emphasis that were hallmarks of the Sarge Training Academy will all be present in this year’s JLTA. We hope you are making plans now for your boys to participate in one of these camps. Read the rest of this entry…

The Medical Release Form that was inclued in the previous post (South Ft. Worth ER Campout) is not the form needed for participating in the paintball activity at the district Lakeview campground.  Included in this post (as well as updated in the previous post) is the link for the correct Paintball Waiver[1] form that must be filled out by each individual prior to being able to take part in the paintball activity.

Danny Tatum also needs a head count of those that are coming by May 10, so the staff can plan accordinly.  For more information on the event, please see the post South Ft. Worth ER Campout.  If you have any further questions, feel free to contact Danny Tatum at dtatum@royalrangers.net.
