Order of the Arrow Announcements

As various awards and activities in the Order of the Arrow are announced, they will be added on this page. (Policy changes are announced separately in the occasional Operations Updates, which are issued as needed.)

Congratulations to the participants and staff of Mark Twain National Forest on an outstanding start to ArrowCorps⁵! Participants arrived early on June 7, 2008 at Mark Twain National Forest in Missouri to begin the first project of ArrowCorps⁵.

The 2008 Quality Lodge Petition is now posted for download. Lodges should review the requirements to obtain 2008 Quality Lodge Petition to plan activities in 2008.

As Scouting's National Honor Society and as an integral part of every council, our service, activities, adventures, and training for youth and adults will be models of quality leadership development and programming that enriche lives of our members and help extend Scouting to America's youth. The 2008-2012 Strategic Plan focuses on these key traits assisting lodges with promoting these ideals and endeavors. Learn more about the Strategic Plan and how your lodge can assist your local council and the Boy Scouts of America with Living the Legacy.

Quality Lodge Recipients for 2007

Every OA lodge has the opportunity to achieve the status of Quality Lodge. The requirements provide a guide for a successful lodge, addressing inductions, service, camp promotion, membership, events, and other aspects of lodge operation. The Quality Lodge program recognizes a level of excellence in lodge program and operation. Congratulations to the lodges that received this honor.
