International Rangers Association

"We believe in the preservation of Nature."

Why Should I Join?

  • To affirm your sense of responsibility for the physical world immediately around you.
  • To be an official member of a movement for good.
  • To be part of a fellowship; a team of like-minded men.
  • For the hat. It looks great. Women will notice it, and men will want one.

Ranger Obligations

  • If you see litter in your neighborhood, town square, or natural area (like a park or a beach), Rangers have an obligation to clean it up, every time.
  • If you see someone littering, Rangers have an obligation to confront them. Be as nice as you want, but as mean as you must, to get them to change their behavior.
  • Embody the Ranger spirit of leadership: Train your family, friends, or neighbors to clean up litter and to confront litterers.
  • Embrace the Ranger spirit of fellowship: Recruit other men to join the cause, meetup at local parks to walk the paths, or, just plan outdoor events to inspire love of Nature in others!
  • Wear your hat when you're at natural areas. It's a symbol of your commitment to the Rangers' cause, a reminder to yourself of your obligations, and a signal to others that you're part of a team.

The Rangers is a voluntary organization. As such it does not charge for hats. Please however note that the hat costs about $50 to procure and to ship, and any donations to the organization to cover these expenses is encouraged and appreciated.
