What is the Order of the Arrow?
For over 100 years, the Order of the Arrow (OA) has recognized Scouts and Scouters who best exemplify the Scout Oath and Law in their daily lives. This recognition provides encouragement for others to live these ideals as well. Arrowmen are known for maintaining camping traditions and spirit, promoting year-round and long term resident camping, and providing cheerful service to others. OA service, activities, adventures, and training for youth and adults are models of quality leadership development and programming that enrich and help to extend Scouting to America's youth.
Scouts who are First Class and have at least 15 nights of camping are eligible to be nominated & elected by their peers for induction into the O.A.
Troops 63 and 772 belong to Witauchsoman Lodge #44. As a member of our Lodge, you will have the opportunity to attend several annual events such as Fall & Spring Fellowship Weekends, Octoberfest, Section E-17 Conclave, and more.
