With fall upon us, it is time to turn our attention as Arrowmen to providing service to our council’s camping program. Our lodge will be hosting events this fall for both current members and new Ordeal inductees. This is a time for us to expand our Brotherhood and cheerfully serve while having some fun at camp.
The events will have opportunities for newly elected members to complete their Ordeal, eligible members to complete their Brotherhood, service time, and fellowship opportunities for our brothers to have some fun and get to know each other better.
