Re: Advancement Academy August 18 - 24, 2019

Dear Ranger, Parent(s), and Guardian(s),

The Academy Staff sends warm Christian greetings.

Spring has started which means summer is just around the corner and time for outdoor games, sports, picnics, and once again the academy. It is going to be another great time of enjoying the outdoors, meeting new rangers, working on merits, and getting to know the LORD. Just as spring changes to summer, the academy changes to keep up with the latest things and mentor them to be better servant leaders.

The academy provides a boy(s) an opportunity to learn leadership skills and earn merits through age specific curriculum(s). These opportunities helps him/them earn his/their age group advancements, merits, “GMA”, “Trail of the Saber Award”, and saber. It will also help him/them complete the “Trail of the Grizzly”, for joining and/or advancing in FCF. Each camp utilizes the patrol system in training boys to work together, while creating their patrol spirit and camaraderie through flag making, yells, songs, and nightly council fires. Each year, reinforces and expands their camping and leadership skills in a spiritual atmosphere. Boys attending the academy will build confidence in themselves, in addition to developing into spiritual leaders within his/their churches and outposts.

The academy staff is in prayer for the upcoming academy and look forward to joining your son(s), as he/they grow Mentally, Physically, Socially, and Spiritually. Please pray with us that the LORD’s Will be done and the boys draw closer to HIM. Together we will continue to move forward in HIS Glory.

Thank you for your continued interest and support of the academy and we look forward to seeing you soon.

In HIS Service,

The Academy Staff

“Evangelizing, Equipping, and Empowering

the Next Generation of Christ-like Men and

Lifelong Servant Leaders”

Additional Camp Information August 18 - 24, 2019 - Camp Roosevelt - Elmer, NJ

CAMPS AVAILABLE This year, several “EJLC” (Elite Junior Leadership Camp) graduates will be returning to serve in various positions throughout the Academy; it is very exciting to see the fruit of GOD’s Work at the Academy.

There will be ten (10) camps offered this year:

We offer the following camps for boys – RTC, JFC, JEMC, JTC, AJTC, SAC, CAC, MAC, EJLC, and SGT.

The Advancement Academy provides the opportunities for boys to receive the training and mentoring needed to grow as rangers, mature Christian young men, and to become the Commanders and Leaders of the future.

As each boy progresses from camp to camp, his teamwork, mentoring, and leadership skills are honed and put to use. At the same time, he is learning to be part of a patrol in a CHRIST-centered team. The camps reinforce Christian doctrine and principles, with each camp holding and participating in its own council fire (a time of praise, worship, and prayer) each night. The LORD continues to bless both the boys and their commanders by meeting them during these special times around their council fires and the altars built in their hearts.

CAMP ASSIGNMENTS

Camp assignments are according to a boy’s school grade, NOT AGE. His grade is referring to the school grade he will be ENTERING in September. If he has just completed the fifth (5th) grade, consider him a sixth (6th) grader. Unfortunately, if a boy did not complete the grade and attended the NJDRRAA last summer; he may not be eligible to attend the next camp. He MUST attend based upon his grade, not his age. We recognize that this may result in a boy being unable to attend until he completes the appropriate grade.

ACADEMY GOALS

It is the expressed purpose of the Advancement Academy to achieve the following goals:

1) To challenge a boy to a deeper relationship with our LORD - JESUS CHRIST2) To provide an atmosphere in which boys can build meaningful relationships through fun and teamwork3) To challenge the boys by achieving and advancing up the royal ranger advancement trail4) To challenge boys specifically to earn the Gold Eagle, Bronze, Silver, and Gold Medal of Achievements

and the Expedition Rangers Leadership Medal5) To provide the highest quality of training possible

ACADEMY PHILOSOPHY

The Academy is “READY” to get boys moving on the right track towards completing the merit awards needed to earn their advancements, medals, GMA, saber, and joining FCF. This will not only help develop the overall boy but will better enable him to help his church, outpost, commanders, patrol, and fellow rangers.

As boys progress from year to year, they will be able to complete the requirements for the JLTA (Junior Leadership Training Academy). This will give boys the opportunity to attend other camps were they can fine tune and put to use the training and skills they have received. It will also, give boys a reason to stay excited about rangers, mentor those who are following, strive to become a commander, and mature in the LORD.

APPLICATION AND FORMS

Please PRINT all requested information clearly, sign, get Senior Commanders’ signature, and mail with a one-hundred and twenty-five dollar ($125.00) deposit per boy. Check(s) are payable to the “NJDRRAA” and mailed to Commander Bob Carlino, 209 Fawn Drive, Newfield, NJ 08344-9573. Any missing information: medical history, signatures, etc, will cause a delay in processing or a returned application.
