About the OA

The Order of the Arrow was founded to recognize Scouts and Scouters who best exemplify the Scout Oath and Law in their daily lives. The OA is also one of the most and best "Youth Lead" parts of scouting. The activities, service projects, events, leadership training, and more are planned by Scouts under the age of 21. The OA focuses on promoting camping spirit in the outdoors, leadership development, and cheerful service.

Mission

The mission of the Order of the Arrow is to fulfill its purpose as an integral part of the Boy Scouts of America through positive youth leadership under the guidance of selected capable adults.

Purpose

As Scouting’s National Honor Society, our purpose is to:

  • Recognize those who best exemplify the Scout Oath and Law in their daily lives and through that recognition cause others to conduct themselves in a way that warrants similar recognition.
  • Promote camping, responsible outdoor adventure, and environmental stewardship as essential components of every Scout’s experience, in the unit, year-round, and in summer camp.
  • Develop leaders with the willingness, character, spirit and ability to advance the activities of their units, our Brotherhood, Scouting, and ultimately our nation.
  • Crystallize the Scout habit of helpfulness into a life purpose of leadership in cheerful service to others.
