Royal Rangers of Outpost 5 went on a hike in Black Diamonds Mine Regional Park on Saturday. Royal Rangers is part of the Assembly of God Church and works a lot like Scouting. Rangers Ministers and works with boys from K-12.
About 20 of us showed up for the hike. Black Diamond Mines is primarily an area that formerly had a a number of coal mines and small towns. However, the picture of the boys is at the entrance to a sandstone mine. The coal mines are dangerous and closed; although I think I went in one about 30 years ago in Boy Scouts.
Little Sherman in the picture is my 3 year old that went on the hike with us; but they would not let him go in the mine at that age. He was very upset.
Royal Rangers Out Post 5 meets at Calvary Temple in Concord. Although technically in Concord it sets on the hill near Bay Point on Highway 4; effectively serving East County and Central County in Contra Costa.
Contact me if you are interested in Royal Rangers.

The Royal Ranger Emblem contains 8 Blue Points that stand for the 8 Points of the Ranger Code.
The 4 Gold Points stand for the 4 Phases of a Boys Development.
The 4 Red Points stand for the 4 Cardinal Points of the Church.
Each Month we focus on one of the Blue Points and either one of the Gold or Red Points.
In September our Blue Point is ALERT - A Royal Ranger is Alert - He is mentally, physically, and spiritually alert.
Our Gold Point is Physical. To that end we have looked at Psalms 28:7 - The Lord is my strength and my shield; in him my heart trusts; so I am helped and my heart exults, and with my song I give thanks to him.
