May 24, 200917 yr My Order OF The Arrow Ordeal Is Next Week Any Suggestions Of What To Bring Or What To Do When I Get There.
May 24, 200917 yr Welcome to the Forum, Candidate. Bring exactly the list of items furnished you by the Secretary of the Lodge. If you have not received a letter from him, contact your OA Troop Representative yet this Memorial Day weekend. When you get to the campground, do exactly what you are told to do, when you are told to do it.
May 24, 200917 yr Yep what John said. This is an awsome expereince and one that you will remember for the rest of your life. tell us how you did next week.
May 24, 200917 yr Congrats, Good advice above, just want to add remember to seal your membership in the OA by going for Brotherhood next spring. Hopefully you are joining a active Lodge/Chapter, but if you are not, the OA is run by the youth(under 21 yo) so you can take part in increasing the activity level if it's not, or doing your part in helping keep a good thing going if it is. Good Luck and keep us posted.
June 1, 200917 yr Author The ordeal was very good.....I was so HUNGRY when we finally ate dinner. The lodge played a joke on us when we finally got to eat the brought us more of what we ate for lunch but way less and told us to eat it but then they told us they were joking and we finally got to eat and i ate SOOOO much. Thanks For All Who Posted
June 1, 200917 yr I'm glad you had a good Ordeal weekend. It's sad that some outfits still think it's funny to play jokes on candidates. That would never fly in this chapter (not for the past dozen years anyway). Welcome to the Brotherhood. Enjoy your journey. BDPT00
June 1, 200917 yr OA ordeal, pack light, PACK LITE, PACK LITE, and ONLY what you are told. Bring a smile and elbow grease. Leave your frowns at home. Learn at least 10 names....
