Pow Wow 2026

June 11th – 13th, 2026

Camp Rain at their new location
250 Osteen Lane, Estill Springs, TN 37330.

New applications, new pricing structure, and new procedures of processing for some of the Royal Ranger medals will take effect on January 1, 2024. Until then, applications for awards can be found at https://royalrangers.com/awards.

Following is an update from the national Royal Rangers office:

To better serve our outposts by simplifying the pricing structure and expediting the medals processing time, we are moving the Gold Trail, Gold Eagle, Adventure Gold, and E3 medals to the Multiple Recipient application. This transition will happen on January 1, 2024. None of these pinnacle awards will be tracked in our databases any longer. The boys will not be issued a national number.

The GMA, GMA with Merit, GMA with Honor, Trail of the Saber, and buffalo awards will continue to be processed under current guidelines and applications. However, the GMA application will have additional information that must be completed. All the merits needed to earn the GMA will have to be listed on the updated GMA application. For example, if a boy completes the Gold Eagle and the Adventure Gold to satisfy the merits requirements for the GMA, then all those merits must be listed on the new GMA application. You will still do the same amount of tracking for the boys; however, you are reporting the information at a different time.

Q: What happens if a leader sends in the Gold Eagle application after January 1, 2024?
A: Nothing on the application will be verified. Our office will process it like a Multiple Recipient application. For example, when we receive an old Gold Falcon or Adventure Bronze application from a few years ago, we process it like a Multiple Recipient application, but we do communicate the current pricing with the leader.

Q: What happens if a leader sends in the old GMA application after January 1, 2024?
A: The new application will be sent to the leader to complete. There will be places to mark previously earned pinnacle awards (Gold Eagle, Adventure Gold, and E3) on the new GMA application, so those merits for those pinnacle awards would not have to be recorded on the new application.
