 The Order of the Arrow (OA) is a National brotherhood of Boy Scouts and Scouters, founded in 1915 to promote Scout camping and to maintain the tradition of the daily Good Turn. Its traditions are rooted deep in the lore of the Lenni Lenape, of the Delaware Indian tribes. The purpose of the OA is:
- To recognize Scout campers who best exemplify the Scout Oath and Law in their daily lives
- To develop and maintain camping traditions and spirit
- To promote scout camping
- To crystallize the Scout habit of helpfulness into a life purpose of leadership in cheerful service to others
Each council operates the OA program in its own "Lodge." Our council's lodge name is "Navajo." The mission of the lodge is to achieve the purpose of the Order of the Arrow as an integral part of the Boy Scouts of America in the council through positive youth leadership under the guidance of selected capable adults. |
