We need as many boys as possible at tonight’s troop meeting. We will be holding elections for Order of the Arrow (OA). OA is Scouting’s Honor Society.  In order to hold an elections, we need to have at least 50% of the registered boys to be in attendance. Please do your best to attend the troop meeting tonight so that we can hold this election as planned. We will have someone from Council attending to facilitate the election and we would rather not have to reschedule.

For more than 90 years, the Order of the Arrow (OA) has recognized Scouts and Scouters who best exemplify the Scout Oath and Law in their daily lives. This recognition provides encouragement for others to live these ideals as well. Arrowmen are known for maintaining camping traditions and spirit, promoting year-round and long term resident camping, and providing cheerful service to others. OA service, activities, adventures, and training for youth and adults are models of quality leadership development and programming that enrich and help to extend Scouting to America’s youth.
