		+	'''Praise Be the Bones'''<br>

		+
		+	Light the candle of memory, to a time not long since passed<br>
		+	‘How did this all begin?’ is a question often asked<br>
		+	There are things as yet unanswered, when we recount our history<br>
		+	So come aboard, and we’ll set sail and illuminate the mystery<br>
		+	<br><br>
		+	'''Chorus:'''<br>
		+	We proudly sing a chorus - with honor lift the ladle<br>
		+	Rememb’ring those who came before us, those not yet in the cradle<br>
		+	Those who stand beside us, and make this place our home<br>
		+	Raise a glass to future and past<br>
		+	Praise Be the Bones<br>
		+	<br><br>
		+	Looking to the past now, two figures form our roots<br>
		+	Both strong and swarthy devils; both cutthroats in tall boots<br>
		+	Two men - our forefathers, two pirates spawned our fleets<br>
		+	Two salty dogs unfurled the flag that flies above the sheets<br>
		+	<br><br>
		+	('''Chorus''')<br>
		+	<br>
		+	He now holds many titles, but when this all began<br>
		+	Captain Aramis Donegan McCleary, The Neptune’s Fury the ship he ran<br>
		+	With his loyal brother, they ventured near and far<br>
		+	Captain Devon Davidson ' The Red’ at the helm of The Amber Star<br>
		+	<br><br>
		+	('''Chorus''')<br>
		+	<br><br>
		+	And now I will give thanks to you who charted this course<br>
		+	And I raise my voice to my family by choice and to those who are its source<br>
		+	Though the path be smooth as glass, or there be shrieking storms that blow<br>
		+	I am always proud when I say<br>
		+	“I’m a Rogue from Colorado”<br>
		+	<br><br>
		+	('''Chorus''')<br><br>

 A Colorado Rogue, as used on this site and within our group, is any inducted member of the Colorado Rogues organization, which is led by the [[Commodore]] and the Captain's Council.
-While we have a close bond with the Grand Junction Rogues (the "Western Slope Rogues"), and indeed some are members of both groups, they are not directly affiliated with our group or this site. Similarly, there are many other Rogue groups across the United States with which we sail. Collectively, we use the term "Rogue" in reference to the individuals within our own groups as a shortened form of our individual group names. Membership of other groups (IBRSC, IFRP,  IWG, Rogues of California, etc) does NOT automatically make you a member of the Colorado Rogues. [[Other Rogue Groups]] is a list of the more notable ones that have crews and provide interaction at the various faires we frequent.  If you are a group and aren't on here we apologize. But we probably haven't interacted with you on a fantastical level yet to warrant us notifying the fleet of your presence.
