Life Rangers

Camp out!

Updated.

Our camp out was a blast!

We enjoyed a hearty meal of burgers and Mac and cheese. Of course marshmallows for dessert. We then enjoyed a late night hike on the trails spotting spiders in the leaves. Their shiney eyes in the lamp light give them away. Then Chief Randy led us in a devotional before we went off to bed.

Last night was a chilly one but we warmed up by the fire early this morning. For breakfast we made sausage patties and pancakes over the fire. After cleaning up the camp site and packing away our things the Rangers enjoyed a scavenger hunt followed by a knots class and practical training sessions. Ask your Ranger to demonstrate a few knots they learned.

Thank you all for your generous donations for food and having our Ranger participate in yet another unforgettable experience.

What a day. Life Rangers was honored to perform a flag retirement ceremony for the Alexandria Senior Citizens Center. First the Rangers changed the flag flying over the senior center, and soon after 15 national ensigns were retired, along with numerous state flags. The Rangers mingled with veterans and other members of the community as our gracious hosts blessed the troop with a hotdog lunch. Ice cream sandwiches and brownies made for a welcome dessert in this heat. It’s sure to be a day the Rangers, and those in attendance won’t soon forget.
