So you want to be a Distinguished Ruffian™? Well here’s how to do it. (PLEASE READ THIS WHOLE PAGE BEFORE SUBMITTING FOR MEMBERSHIP)First follow us on Instagram (@DistinguishedRuffian) (subscribing to our YouTube channel Distinguished Ruffian TV doesn’t hurt either). After that, email in the requested information from the form below along with a photo of yourself doing something both Distinguished and Ruffian along with a brief description of how you heard about the group and why you’d like to become a member to DRMembership@outlook.com

If you are accepted we’ll post it to our Instagram feed tagging you and the chapter you fall into. Make sure to be creative with your photos everybody.
Qualifying For Membership
There’s no need to have a member vouch for you but when they are given from another member we do pay attention to them. After submitting for membership you can find our private Facebook group “The Ruffian Quarter” and send a request to join while waiting to be approved. Approvals take at least 8-10 weeks so during that time you can use “the Ruffian Quarter” as a way to get to know some of the current members and stay active with them, we are a pretty close group here and all communicate regularly with each other. Must be 21 or older to join. (If you are here just for a free patch then this isn’t the club for you. Participation and communication from members is expected as we are trying to grow a community.)
What will membership bring you ask? An extended family of over 11,000 people, a listing on our member map so you can see who else is near you the official welcome letter and your first patch only available to our members. We also have been building a collection of member only products like, additional patches, stickers, T-shirts, challenge coins, lapel pins and bottle openers! Join up and stay in the loop.
And remember,
Be a Ruffian but be Distinguished

Regarding members-only products, might I suggest cuff links bearing our beloved Derby with Crossed Revolvers insignia? I cannot wait to sport the DCR in as many fashions as we can um, fashion.

The cufflinks are a good idea. We currently have a couple of things in the works and are awaiting pricing. One we have some solid information we’ll start seeing what kind if member interest there are in the items.
