Title
Tatanka Lodge #141, Order Of The Arrow
Description
What exactly is the OA?
At the 1999 National Summit in Colorado, the Order changed its designation from "The Society of Honored Campers" to "Scouting's National Honor Society". But that likely isn't an answer that makes sense to someone who has never encountered the Order before.
So, more plainly, the Order of the Arrow (OA) is a group inside the Boy Scouts of America. The aim of this organization was originally to help promote Scout Camping and still is. However, the OA is also a place for older boys to meet others, come together, work, and have fun. The OA is entirely run by the youth, with help from adult "Advisers". In contrast to Boy Scouts, the youth-adult defining age is twenty-one for the OA, whereas, it is 18 for Boy Scouting.
The Mission of the Lodge
The mission of the lodge is to achieve the purpose of the Order of the Arrow as an integral part of the Boy Scouts of America in the council through positive youth leadership under the guidance of selected capable adults.
