HEY!!!! YOU!!!! YES YOU!!!! The one thinking
about joining our troop or are already in it and are looking here because
you want to know the meaning of OA. Well
it's a two-letter acronym
that
stands for
Order of the Arrow. Sound pretty cool? In case you were
wondering; we're NOT a band of carefree Boy Scouts who roam Sunnyvale and
the surrounding cities stealing from the rich and giving to the poor. We
don't do that but we do help the community in many ways through cheerful
service. Oh, and you get to wear a cool sash with a red arrow on it
definitely
improving the Boy Scout uniform. Anyhow, OA is an 'elite brotherhood' of
Boy Scouts where you get to make new friends, have fun, and help out the
community
all in one package
for FREE! If you're interested in
joining OA
then start working towards 1st Class (required for OA)
and
on your other scouts to vote for you when OA elections roll around in March.
So start racing towards that not-that-elusive 1st Class badge
and when
March rolls around
hey! Then you'll get to know the ultra-cool OA experience.
As an added bonus, if you're elected as OA rep (like I am) then you'll get
to miss one troop meeting per MONTH. But I'm sure whoever the next OA rep
won't look forward to that part because we all love troop meetings, right?
