ROTY Presentation
Turn your speakers on and click
the image or link below to
watch a Flash video presentation that
explains
the new ROTY format. (Opens in a new window.)
Download all the information on this web site. Follow the lesson plans
in the Leaders Guide for Year One for Discovery and Adventure Rangers.
Ranger Kids and Expedition Rangers should focus on the merits and advancement
requirements
listed in the ROTY packet. Set up a time a couple of weeks prior to the
Section ROTY and help the boys review the information and strengthen their
skills.
Who should I contact in my district to volunteer to help at the ROTY?
The best person to contact is your district commander. Typically, the
programs coordinator will run the ROTY at the district level and the
Section Commander will run the ROTY at the section level, but the district
commander
will be able to get you connected to the right person the fastest!
How do I purchase the medallion with ribbon?
The Outpost medallion can be purchased directly from GPH. The higher
levels are only available to district commanders.
How can the parents of each boy help?
Give them a copy of the ROTY packet. They can help to reinforce their weekly
learning at home and help them review the merit information throughout the year.
