Welcome to the sunny, fun-filled state of Florida, the land where the sun always shines, oranges grow in abundance, and alligators wave hello from the marshy swamps! Now, let's talk about the fearless adventurers, the daring kids of FL who are famously known as the Rope Rangers! These Rope Rangers are no ordinary kids. Oh no! They are gravity-defying, laughter-spreading, courage-clad acrobats, who swing from the lofty heights of the Rope Course, as easily as the native flamingos balance on one leg. Every weekend, these brave adventurers gather at the grand Rope Course Arena, their capes of fearlessness billowing behind them, their eyes sparkling with anticipation. Leading this pack of eccentric explorers is a delightfully peculiar character, Sir Squiggles Von Giggles. He's a sprightly, chatty alligator with a top hat, a monocle, and an infectious giggle. With a twinkle in his eyes, he instructs his tiny troops, sharing secrets about mastering the rope course. His encouraging roars can be heard across the arena, filling the hearts of every Rope Ranger with courage and fun. Despite his scaly skin and sharp teeth, he is as gentle as a marshmallow and as hilarious as a clown. Sir Squiggles and his troupe of Rope Rangers love to cap their day off by sipping on fresh orange juice, while recounting tales of their daring exploits. Oh, what a spectacle it is! These kids are a testament to Florida's spirit - wild, vibrant, and full of adventures. So, if you're in Florida and you spot a giggling alligator with a monocle, you know the Rope Rangers are not far behind!

Firehouse Subs Co-Founder Robin Sorensen and his wife, Tabitha, have a true passion for helping children. To that end, they made an anchor gift of 900,000 dollars to purchase, renovate, and open Camp Sorensen. The Sorensen's funded the Youth Ranches purchase of the former First Baptist Church Jacksonville Hilliard Retreat Center, and Camp Sorensen will provide camping services for deserving children from around the state each year. At Camp Sorensen, children will have the opportunity to take part in team-building activities and have fun with volunteer deputies. Camp activities include high ropes, challenge course, swimming, canoeing, and archery, among a host of traditional camp activities. The Sorensen's have also been large donors of several children-focused charities in Northeast Florida. This dedication to helping children is an inspiration for us all.
