Upcoming Lodge Events

Hello, fellow Wearers of the Arrow.

I hope you’re all doing well as summer break ends and school begins.
I’d like to tell you about our two upcoming lodge events, Pow Wow and Indian Summer.

On the 21st of this month is Indian Summer, a day of service and fellowship at Camp Rotary in Hartwell GA. The morning will be spent providing service to the camp and the afternoon will have various Indian Affairs Activities. Lunch and dinner will be provided. The cost is $25 and the registration deadline is Wednesday the 18th, so make sure you sign up now! https://mowogo.org/joom39/forms-and-links/event-registration

Pow Wow is taking place September 17th-19th. Pow Wow is one of the largest and most attended lodge events we have. The event is focused on fun and fellowship, it’s like our lodge’s version of Camporee. You can enjoy a weekend of games and competitions between the chapters for the coveted Black Bear.

In the morning we’ll have training cells, an opportunity to learn and earn points for your chapter. In the afternoon we’ll have games, some past examples are: Tug of War, Ultimate Frisbee, Wischixin, Waguli Stick, A Plunger Relay and more. All games are played Tournament Style with each chapter competing for third, second and first place, each higher place earning more points towards the Black Bear.

One of the more important things at Pow Wow is Lodge Officer elections. If you want to have a say in who your 2022 Lodge Chief and Lodge Officers are, you’ll need to attend and stay until Sunday morning!

A final item worth noting is that as of last year we offer Brotherhood conversion at Pow Wow. That means if you went through your Ordeal at Spring Fellowship this year, you’re eligible for Brotherhood. All you have to do is check a box when you sign up that says, “Converting to Brotherhood.” Your OA Handbook lists the requirements. Make sure you get those done before Pow Wow and you’re all set.

Register before September 10th to avoid the late fee and remember that registration closes on Wednesday the 15th! Sign up at: https://mowogo.org/joom39/forms-and-links/event-registration
I hope to see you there!

Yours in Cheerfulness,
