International Cyber Pow Wow

International Cyber Pow Wow 1997

In the last half of 1996, several Royal Rangers leaders who were active on RangerNet (a Royal Rangers e-mail listserv that was popular in the 1990s) decided to host a virtual event for Rangers and leaders around the world. The event was officially hosted by the Pacific Latin American District. John Martinez ran the RangerNet listserv, and others involved with the Cyber Pow Wow included Duane and Jennifer Wheeler and Jonathan Trower.

There was a series of activities like nature studies, a compass course, an FCF village, and a scavenger hunt as well as devotions from many of the US national RR leaders and national RR leaders from other countries.

The registration fee was $5, and included a patch. A second patch could be purchased for an additional $2. A total of 655 patches were distributed to Rangers and leaders around the world. Registrations were received from 246 leaders, and many of those included Rangers from their family or outpost.

The Cyber Pow Wow was successful enough to generate $1403.24 above the cost of the patches. That money was donated to Missionary Doug Marsh for Camp Summit in Costa Rica.
