Ranger Kids: (Kindergarten, first grade, and second grade) includes a challenging and fun advancement system encouraging boys through indoor and outdoor activities and games. The weekly lessons and objectives help to reinforce godly principles in their daily lives. They have opportunities to achieve many advancement awards that can be placed on an awards vest and worn each week as part of the official Royal Ranger uniform.

Discovery Rangers: (third, fourth, and fifth grade) features an exciting premiere advancement system. In this system, boys will learn through camping and non-camping activities. An emphasis is placed on learning at their own pace in a merit-based curriculum.

Adventure Rangers: (sixth, seventh, and eighth grade) participate in more challenging camping and outdoor activities while emphasizing skill development, advanced camping, Junior Leadership Training, Frotiersmen Camping Fellowship (FCF), and Bronze, Silver, and Gold medals with national recognition.
