I'm pretty sure Mambo will allow users to post news without being admins,
although the admin will have to approve the news beforehand. Mamba also has
a 'sidesite' with XML coding to be used as RSS feeds. Any site owner can use
the XML url link on their site to dynamically show the news posted on the
Mambo site.

I have to admit, I'm not sure on this point. I could certainly display
syndicate news in a new sidebar box via an external RSS feed.
Another option would be to simply give you guys logins for the Mambo
admin site and let you add news items to the queue.
What I would like to do is register an RSS feed in Mambo and so that I
can copy news from RSS feeds to the FRPGC site through the Mambo admin
screen. Doesn't seem possible though, which is a pain.

I think it would definitely be worth the effort: I use RSS (or Atom
feeds, which are the better choice apparently) readers all the time,
both at home and at work.
Kind regards...
