Rangers is a great program for older Boy Scouts and Venturers. Participants will enjoy a week of exciting events such as rappelling on Glassy Mountain, canoeing on the Green River, and whitewater rafting on the French Broad or Nantahala Rivers. Although participants will stay with their units during the week, they should be prepared to spend one night camping out. This is an all day program. Participants should meet at the rappelling towers on Monday morning. The weekly schedule will be determined by the director according to weather, river level, etc. Participants will do some requirements for Climbing and Whitewater merit badges as well as the Venturing Ranger Award.
