OA Spring Service Weekend

Congratulations on your election as a candidate for the Order of the Arrow, Scouting’s National Honor Society!  Our Order recognizes campers who best exemplify the Scout Oath and Law in their daily lives.

If you were elected by the members of your unit but that have not been fully admitted,  you are considered a Candidate.  As a candidate, you would need to attend one of the Service (Induction) Weekends in the year you were elected to become a member of our lodge.

If you already have your OA Sash, you are a Member.  We would encourage all of our members to come back out and help us induct new members into our lodge.

 

When is the Spring Service Weekend?

  • Spring Service & New Member Induction WEEKEND (at Forestburg)
  • Event Dates : FRIDAY to SUNDAY -- See Calender

You must complete either the SPRING or FALL Service Weekends to become a member of our Lodge and Scouting's Honor Society.
