Sharing Skills, Concepts, Solutions, and Fellowship  Welcome to ScoutRangers.Org - Our Mission         Welcome to the Internet's home for Rangers and all those associated with caring for camps and wilderness reservations! Our mission is to provide a resource of ideas, concepts, skills, and fellowship to Rangers and other Scouting professionals charged with caring for camps and other facilities. Our content is designed to encourage and enhance our abilities to get a very complex and varied job done with the highest degree of Scouting spirit and professionalism. The New Website and Blog - New for 2011          New for 2011 is this new look and a new approach. At the left you see an array of topic buttons. For now (as of March 1, 2011) they are disabled and are simply there to show what topics we will be covering in the site. Once you join the fellowship, you will not only gain access to the content, but be able to comment on it, add your own ideas and approaches, and post articles yourself. What we are doing here is trying to take all the best attributes of what has been attempted before - Facebook Groups, Yahoo! Groups, websites, etc. - and put them all under one roof. I don’t expect we’ll have thousands of hits on this site, but it should be a much improved way of dialogging about our profession, and that is the point.            That having been said, bear with me as we bring this new version of the site fully on line. Any questions, comments, or rants, feel free to e-mail me at tim@tsbongard.com . Join the Fellowship and Get in on the Dialog While this site was originally created to benefit those who serve Scouts and Scouters at facilities belonging to the Boy Scouts of America, Rangers and Stewards from other groups such as Girl Scouts, Royal Rangers, or camps that serve youth are all more than welcome to be a part of our fellowship. For complete access to the site click on the button below.  Also, pass the word to your friends and fellow rangers who may be interested in being a part of all this. With your help and participation we can all benefit from our collective experiences and meet any challenge this diverse and wonderful job can throw at us.
