The Order of the Arrow is the Brotherhood of Cheerful Service. Its purpose is to recognize those Scouting campers who best exemplify the Scout Oath and Law in their daily lives to develop and maintain camping traditions and spirit to promote Scout camping and to crystallize the Scout habit of helpfulness into a life purpose of leadership in cheerful service to others.

The Order of the Arrow is important.  In selecting candidates, consider the Scout Oath and Law: does this scout live by these guidelines; does he help you live by these same guidelines; do you, your patrol, and the troop benefit by his work, leadership, and example?

The following Troop 9 Scouts are eligible for election this year:

• Andrew Hoover
• Jason Gabriel
• Ben Irvin
• Lucas Nelson
• Scott Noell
• Graham Paulsgrove

The election has been rescheduled for the Troop meeting on Tuesday 10 March. Results will be announced at the Spring Camporee.
