Spring Fellowship Check-in and Check-out Procedure

Hello Brothers,

Spring Fellowship is coming up and we are very excited for a weekend of fellowship and service.

Here is the Check-in procedure for arriving on Friday night between 6:30 p.m. and 9:00 p.m.

Members and Candidates will arrive in the parking lot and head to the Admin Building.

Please leave your gear outside while you go inside for check-in.

Everyone bring their Medical forms if needed inside to the check-in table so we can make sure everyone has registered, paid, and accounted for.

Everyone will receive a Patch Voucher that you will need to hold onto for the weekend. This is your way to receive your patch during checkout.

After turning in your paperwork:

Members will head back outside, and head to your chapter campsite.

Candidates will proceed to the medical officer with their Medical Forms, and then be assigned to a clan and receive an arm band.
We ask that candidates arrive as close to 6:30 as possible so that we can get them in their clans.

If you plan on becoming Brotherhood Members at Spring Fellowship, please be early as well since the Brotherhood hike will start at 8 p.m. from the dining hall porch.

For after 9:00 p.m. or Saturday arrivals Check-in will be available after breakfast on Saturday.

Check-out procedure

Everyone will have received a Patch Voucher when they check in and will need to turn it in on Sunday when they check out to receive their patch. Turning in the Patch Voucher is how we know that you have left the property.

From after Breakfast Sunday morning, someone will be available in the Admin Building, swapping Patch Vouchers for Patches, and checking people out. Once you have turned your ticket in and received your patch, you are free to go home.

If you must leave early, please check out with one of the Admin team or leave your Patch Voucher with your Chapter Adviser so that they may collect your Patch.

If anyone has any questions, feel free to reach out.

Yours in Service,

Spring Fellowship Ceremonialists Needed!

Good afternoon Arrowmen!

As of now, we are in dire need of additional ceremonialists.

We need two Allowat Sakima’s for Friday night’s Pre-Ordeal ceremonies, along with one for Saturday’s Ordeal, who can be the same as a Pre-O.

We also need backups for EVERY PRINCIPLE.

The more ceremonialists we have, the better experience we can offer our candidates and our brothers. However, if we do not have enough ceremonialists, we cannot hold a brotherhood ceremony, we hold it at an inopportune time, or ceremonies stretch out so long it negatively impacts the fellowship experience for the whole lodge. Every youth member, even those that went through their Ordeal at Fall Fellowship, are eligible to be a ceremonialist.

Please contact me ASAP at lodge.vcia@mowogo.org

Yours in Brotherhood,

Andrew Chalmers | Lodge Vice Chief of Indian Affairs

Spring Fellowship Registration - 1 week left!

Brothers,

Our Spring Fellowship in March is rapidly approaching and if you are not yet signed up, you should be! Spring Fellowship is taking place March 15th - March 17th and has a plethora of activities for everyone varying from fellowship to service and patch trading. There will even be an opportunity to get Brotherhood!

If you sign up to attend, you will spend parts of Saturday in service to Camp Rainey Mountain, giving back to the camp and making it truly a place to remember for everyone who will use it in the future.

But Spring Fellowship isn't all service! There will be silent auctions and patch trading. Unique games will be brought to people to enjoy. Saturday night will have a memorable campfire filled with interactive songs, skits, and stories. To top it all off there will be remarkable food to enjoy with friends.

Registration closes on March 11th but an additional 10 dollars will be added after March 8th!

Be sure to sign up and make memories with us before it's too late at Spring Fellowship Registration.

Yours in Enthusiasm,

Tamas L. Phillips | Vice Chief of Communications
Order of the Arrow, Mowogo Lodge
