Order Of The Arrow
Scouting's National Honor Society
As Scouting’s National Honor Society, we forge lifelong bonds among the leaders in Scouting and:
Recognize those who exemplify the Scout Oath and Law in their daily lives and, through that recognition, cause others to act in the same way
Reinforce a life purpose of leadership in cheerful service to others
Create and deliver peer-led, adult-guided, advanced leadership experiences for Scouts and Scouters that positively impact their unit, community, and ultimately our nation
Be an integral part of Scouting America and encourage participation in all it offers through units, outdoor adventures, and national events to further the Scouting experience
See this and more at the official Order of the Arrow website, here.
The OA has more than 170,000 active members located in lodges affiliated with over 295 BSA local councils, and for over 90 years it has celebrated those in Scouting who truly live according to the Socut Oath and Law.
