The Order of the Arrow’s purpose is to:

  • Recognize those who exemplify the Scout Oath and Law in their daily lives and that recognition cause others to conduct themselves in the same way
  • Promote camping, responsible outdoor adventure, and environmental stewardship.
  • Develop leaders with the willingness, character, spirit and ability to advance Scouting, and our nation.
  • Solidify the Scout law point, helpful in their life purpose of leadership in cheerful service to others.
