ORDER OF THE ARROW

Lodge #536
NEED A FALL
FELLOWSHIP REGISTRATION FORM?
Fellow
Arrowmen,
Tupwee is
continuing to make strides in achieving Quality Lodge for the year 2008.
While we are proceeding forward per our plan your assistance is still needed
and appreciated. Please try to attend the fall fellowship at the new Rocky
Mountain High Adventure Base, just up the highway from the old adventure
base. Two important areas of need for Quality Lodge are membership growth
and Brotherhood conversion. Scoutmasters, if you are aware of an elected
scouted that has not yet done his ordeal please try to encourage him to
attend the fellowship. If transportation is an issue let me know and we
will make arrangements accordingly. The same goes for Ordeal members that
have 10 months of membership. They are now qualified to seal their
membership as Brotherhood members; all they have to do is show up.
Fellowships
are always a good experience and well worth the time, and besides, there is
plenty of good quality food to be had, Bill & Linda McIntire make sure of
that.
If you have
any questions concerning the event please call me at the office number shown
on my e-signature. Call anytime as it rings forward to my cell phone
automatically if I am not in the office.
An agenda
will follow in a few days.
Yours in
Service

Brothers,
I'm pleased to announce that the 2009 OA High Adventure applications
for OA Ocean Adventure, OA Trail Crew and OA Wilderness Voyage are now
available on the OA High Adventure website,
http://adventure.oa-bsa.org. Be sure to sign up as soon as possible.
The 2008 programs were sold out by January 1 of this year. So submit
your applications today!
Since 2009 is a NOAC year, each program will be running a condensed
schedule leading up to the Conference. Additionally, as we have done in
the past few years priority for the OA Ocean Adventure program will be
given to past participants of OA Trail Crew and OA Wilderness Voyage.
The fees for each program are as follows:
OA Trail Crew - $200
OA Ocean Adventure - $500
OA Wilderness Voyage - $150
These programs are for youth between the ages of 16 and 21. Each of the three
program is an unique 2-week experience where Arrowmen combine the ideals of
brotherhood, cheerfulness and service in the out of doors.
During 1 of the 2 weeks, Arrowmen will provide meaningful
service to each of the program's locales. Some will help build portage trails in
the Boundary Waters, others will assist in keeping our oceans pristine while
others will build lasting trails in the backcountry at Philmont. The other week
will be the trip/experience of a lifetime through a self-designed trip!
Also, the OA High Adventure Promotions team is putting on a CONTEST for past
participants of each program. Each month starting in September, we will be
featuring a photos and quotes from past participants on the OA High Adventure
website. There are prizes to be had so please check out
http://adventure.oa-bsa.org for more information.
Please contact me off-list at
DaveNguyen191@aol.com if you have any additional questions.
In the Spirit of Adventure,
Dave Nguyen
OAHA Promotions

Founder's Award
I ntroduced
at the 1981 National Order of the Arrow Conference, the Founder's Award was
created to honor and recognize those Arrowmen who have given outstanding service
to their lodge. The award is reserved for an Arrowmen who demonstrate to fellow
Arrowmen that he or she memorializes in his or her everyday life the spirit of
achievement as described by founder E. Urner Goodman and cofounder Carroll A.
Edson. In 2008, this very special Award goes to
Travis Borah and
Ryan Rush Miller for their help to the Tupwee Lodge.
