OA Nunne-Hi Chapter news

Dear Arrowman,

“The things of the spirit count: Brotherhood — in a day when there is too much hatred at home and abroad. Cheerfulness — in a day when the pessimists
have the floor. Service — in a day when millions are interested only in getting or grasping rather than giving. These are of the spirit, blessed of God, the great
Divine Spirit."
- E. Urner Goodman, Founder of the Order of the Arrow

We had a great 5th annual Coosa Lodge American Indian Seminar this weekend, With an awesome Live Bird Demonstration, Classes on Dancing, Drumming and Ceremonies, and all sorts of Native American Crafts. If you could not make it, you missed a good time. But if you were not there, we really did miss you and want you to know its never to late to get involved in the Lodge.


We are meeting this Thursday night at 6:30 pm at Briarwood for our regular chapter meeting. We meet in the Mountain View building, which is behind the Caroline House at Briarwood..

Are you a Brotherhood Member?

A Brotherhood Member is a member one who understands the meaning of the Ordeal and symbols that he experienced, is a leader and servant in his Troop and Lodge, and agrees to live by the Obligation.

This Thursday night we want people who need Brotherhood Counseling to attend and get tested for the next step of OA membership that is Brotherhood.

There is a short counseling session that we try to have during our Chapter meetings, and you will have had to have memorize (or come close to it) the Obligation and Song. This needs to be done beforehand. This is found in your OA handbook. We also need a letter that you have written that says you intend to continue or begin to serve the Lodge and your troop in the future. All the requirements are in your handbook. If you have been an Ordeal member for at least 10 months, you really should come to the meeting, and we will help you in this next step.

We also will be conducting an OA Troop election training, have news on upcoming events, and talk about an upcoming Service Project on April 24th at Camp Jack Wright.

It is still not to late to sign up for Conclave. Memorabilia can still be ordered onsite. This will be held this year at Camp Tukabatchee near Montgomery.

We will have information on Thursday.

We are now on Facebook. Search for "Nunne-Hi Chapter of the Coosa Lodge."

Has your Troop held an OA election? We need your dates!
Does your troop have an OA rep? He really needs to attend these meetings as part of his leadership obligation.
We need his name, phone number and email.

In the Order,
Wimachtendienk. Wingolauchsik. Witahemui ,
