Cub Scout Camping
Camping
has long been a tradition of Scouting’s history for the purpose of
developing self-confidence, leadership, citizenship as well as an
understanding and appreciation of the outdoors. Camping adds a
dimension to a youth's Scouting experience not easily found in other
settings. Click here

The OA is recognized as Scouting's National Honor Society. To become a member, a youth must be a registered member of a Boy Scout troop or Varsity Scout team and hold First Class rank. The youth must have experienced 15 days and nights of camping during the two years before his election. The 15 days and nights must include one, but no more than one, long-term camp consisting of six consecutive days and five nights of resident camping, approved and under the auspices and standards of the Boy Scouts of America. The balance of the camping must be overnight, weekend, or other short-term camps. Scouts are elected to the Order by their fellow troop or Varsity team members, following approval by the Scoutmaster or Varsity Scout Coach.
The
purpose of the Order of the Arrow is fourfold:
OA members are encouraged to attend Chapter meetings and to take full advantage of all that the OA has to offer. Colonneh Lodge has many opportunities for service, leadership development, Native American dancing, drumming, and ceremonies. Order of the Arrow members are able to participate in exclusive Lodge events (e.g., Fall PowWow, Spring Fellowship), Regional events (e.g., Section Conclave), and National events (e.g., National Order of the Arrow Conference). OA members can even serve a valuable role both to their Unit and Chapter at the same time by serving as OA Troop/Team Representative. This role counts as a “Position of Responsibility” toward the rank of Eagle. The OA has something for everyone!
