Chiefly Speaking
Monday October 13, 2008 10:36 pm
Dear Brothers-
I write to you a few weeks into our brand new year. After speaking with the Lodge Chiefs, there is a lot of excitement among the Section at this time.
To all of you who participated in ArrowCorps5, thank you! Your efforts certainly did not go unnoticed. Through the five different
National Forests, the Order of the Arrow was able to show our country our capability to provide cheerful service. To date, organizations from around the country are recognizing our Order for what we accomplished this summer. Check out the National BSA Website for a recap of AC5.
The National Order of the Arrow Conference is right around the corner,
and thus information will be rolling out quickly from the National
Committee. I want to assure all of you, that as soon as I receive such
information, it will be available to all of you. Also, learn who your
Lodge NOAC Coordinator is, as he will have the most up to date
information regarding the Conference. Through the planning that is
already underway, NOAC '09 is shaping up to be the best National
Conference ever held, so make sure that you are a part of it
New Section Website

The Section C-3B website committee has "renovated" the website to
improve ease of use for the front and back end. Many of the features have not been completed yet. Please check back soon.
Our intentions in the coming months is to add a Lodge Resources area,
launch a one-time registration system for section events, and many more
features. Please let us know if you, or anyone you know, would be interested in joining the committee.
