Scoutmasters,
Many of your Scouts and Scouters have entered into the Order of the Arrow, however very few have continued their journey and reaffirmed the membership by achieving the Brotherhood Honor.
I understand that many of your troop calendars and events have already been planned for this year. However, I am asking you to take some time to consider encouraging the Ordeal members of your troop to reaffirm their comittment to service at the Lodge Banquet in December, the Winter Ordeal in February, the Lodge Fellowship weekend in March, or the Spring Ordeals in May and June.
In order to be eligible to convert to the Brotherhood Honor, an Ordeal member must have been in the Order for at least ten months. All arrowmen who have served your troop faithfully are eligible to take part in this opportunity.
If you have any questions about the Brotherhood Honor, please feel free to contact me at the email address below. I would be more than happy to provide additional information regarding the Order.
I appreciate your commitment to the youth of your unit, and encourage you to take advantage of the service and fellowship of the Order to enhance your troop program.
An arrowman’s first service is to his troop, without you there would be no Order.
