He thought, “Why not create a program that combines hands-on political training with instruction in true conservative principles?”
Rick shared his idea with friends and leaders, and in 2000 they formed The Torch of Freedom Foundation…the first step in realizing their vision.
Members of the board began to lay the groundwork for Patriot Academy – Capitol Boot Camps, a weeklong summer program to train students in conservative principles and practical politics, with an emphasis on Godly character.
During this time, Rick joined WallBuilders, an organization dedicated to preserving America’s Godly heritage. WallBuilders embraced Patriot Academy and sponsored it as an outstanding opportunity to raise up the next generation of Godly leaders in America.
The first Patriot Academy was held at the Texas State Capitol in 2003.
No better reward could be experienced than to watch the next generation accept the Torch of Freedom and dedicate their lives, fortunes and sacred honor to keep it burning brightly.
