Order of the Arrow Elections

Troop 108 will be having its annual Order of the Arrow (OA) elections this Tuesday, February 3. All scouts registered in the troop should attend the meeting and participate in these elections.

Eligibility for OA membership requires a rank of at least First Class and 15 nights of camping, of which at least 6 nights are long term camping. Scouts with these credentials can be considered for election.

The Order of the Arrow (OA) is the national honor society of the Boy Scouts of America (BSA). Founded in 1915, it uses American Indian traditions and ceremonies to bestow recognition on Scouts selected by their peers as best exemplifying the Scout Oath and Scout Law in their daily lives. Inducted members are known as Arrowmen or brothers and are organized into local youth-led lodges for fellowship and the rendering of service to Boy Scout councils and their communities.
