We are grateful to the charter board of directors for their hard work and dedication. This first board of directors officially met on August 6, 1981 at the Texas Ranger Hall of Fame and Museum in Waco, Texas. Directors were selected by Ranger Captains in their area as they still are today by the Ranger Majors.

This charter board’s vision and wisdom established this organization in a manner befitting the steadfast tradition of the Texas Rangers. We endeavor to carry on their mission of service, support, and friendship.
