Dear Brothers,
When Dr. E. Urner Goodman and Col. Carroll A Edson founded the Order of the Arrow over 100 years ago, the principles of Brotherhood, Cheerfulness, and Service were at the forefront of their mission. Often referred to as the Wimachtendienk or the Brotherhood, our order has achieved many remarkable things, served countless people, and impacted the lives of millions of scouts.
At the 2021 Section Leadership Summit, Arrowman from across the Section will come together to discover how “The spark is there, already glowing, fan it now, forgetting hunger, feed it, till it is a fire.” These lodge and chapter leaders will experience the true meaning of Brotherhood and learn why the most crucial element to our program is the great bonds we all share. While our order serves many purposes, we are, at the core, a brotherhood.
The message that will be conveyed is particularly important in our society, where the feeling of brotherhood and fellowship has never been more needed. By the end of the weekend, these key leaders will explore how to apply these fundamental ideas to achieve the things most needed in the Order of the Arrow: unit elections, inductions, and activation.
As the Host Lodge, our goal is to make this the most unique and memorable Section Leadership Summit to date. One of the most important aspects to having a successful event is creating an exciting atmosphere.
With your sparks united, our flame cannot be put out. Join together on November 5th-7th at Camp Elmore, Davie, FL. Register today at tinyurl.com/SLSregister.
