Event Info

Ordeal Weekends

Although some minor changes may be required for individual Ordeal induction weekends, check-in times are firmly established. Please be on time.

Each Scout is responsible for his own transportation. Each Scout and Scouter being inducted into the Order of the Arrow will need to bring:

• a current Class 1 medical form. For Colorado camps, you must use the Colorado medical form. Fill out Sections 1, 2, and, if applicable, Section 3 for OA lodge events--no physician's signature is required. You may also use this form for events at Wyoming camps.
• his or her own personal camping equipment
• work clothes and work gloves
• plenty of water
• a ground cloth for the first night (as you will be sleeping under the stars)
• rain gear and warm clothing

Please note that it is the Scout's responsibility to retrieve his medical form upon check-out from the event if he wants it returned. Otherwise, all forms not retrieved will be shredded.

General Info

Here's a Map showing the new Chapters of our new Districts.

The lodge's top four youth officers are elected each year at the first Spring induction weekend. Adult associate lodge advisers are appointed by the Lodge Adviser for one-year terms. The Lodge Adviser and the Chapter Advisers are appointed for one-year terms by the Supreme Chief of the Fire (Council Scout Executive).

Election Forms

• Unit Election Report Form
  This form is used to record unit election results and which team conducted the election. It is retained by the chapter, not sent to the lodge.
• Consolidated Chapter Elections Report (MS Excel spreadsheet)
  Chapters use this form to report the consolidated results of all the unit elections and camp promotions conducted for the year to the lodge Senior Vice Chief of Membership. Unit Election Teams should have the unit leader fill out this form so the Chapter has the necessary contact details for each candidate elected.
• Adult Candidate Recommendation Form

Note - forms are in format.

Lodge Rules

Updated Lodge Operating Rules have been posted (July 2008). (in format)

Camp Promotion

One of the tasks of OA members is to encourage their Troops to enjoy long-term camping, and Summer Camp is a great way to help scouts grow.

Encourage your Troop to plan now for Summer Camp at our excellent Longs Peak Council Camps, Camp Ben Delatour (near Red Feather Lakes, CO) and Camp Laramie Peak (near Wheatland, Wyoming).

Camp Jobs

One great way to make our Summer Camps even better is to have the Best Scout Campers (you! OA members!) join camp staff.

Contact the Greeley Office for applications 1-800-800-4052.

KOLA email

KOLA Lodge has a listserver that will automatically send you email with information about events in the Chapter and Lodge. It's not a lot of spam, it's only a handful of messages per month (if that) to help you know what's up with OA. Contact your Chapter to find out how to get on the list.
