To: Royal Ranger Leaders

Pow Wow Theme: "Olympics"

Speaker

Pastor John McDuff, District Assistant Superintendent will be the Pow Wow speaker.

Pow Wow Site

The Pow Wow will be down by the Colorado River where it was last year. The Country Camp administration commended the Royal Rangers last year for leaving the site clean and for not damaging any property. I was very proud of our leaders and boys. It is a good reflection on our leadership.

Special Emphasis

Bible skills and Trail Ranger water sports.

Subject: Excused Absence for Pow Wow Participants - May 4-5-6, 1984

ROYAL RANGERS is a Christ-centered, Bible-based, adventure-filled boy's organization sponsored by the Assemblies of God.

The South Texas District conducts a Pow Wow each year for the boys and leaders of the district. Since this supervised camping activity involves one school day this year, I respectfully request that you grant an excused absence for participating boys, allowing them to make up their assignments at your discretion.

I appreciate your consideration toward this request.

May God bless,

Ralph Williams RW/bk
