via Scout A:
Last Monday, we had our Order of the Arrow (OA) election. , The OA is an honor society in the BSA that recognizes scouts who “best exemplify the Scout Oath and Law in their daily lives”.
In our OA election, we had our scouts vote on other scouts who were First Class and above on joining the Order of the Arrow
At least 50% of scouts must be present in order for the election to take place. After the introduction from our district representative for OA, the scouts were handed ballots to vote for the scouts they thought were worthy of receiving the opportunity of becoming Arrowmen. However, they must not choose their friends, but choose those who are always helpful, kind to others, and generous in even the grim of situations.
Four Troop 260 Scouts were elected to join the OA and will be formerly inducted in the coming month. Huge congratulations to all!
Congratulations! 😃
