Order of the Arrow Resources & Web Links

Jump Start for ALL Arrowmen

In January 2004, as promised, a special area of the national OA web site has been created to assist new members of the Order of the Arrow to learn more about the OA quickly and easily. This introduction to the Order and its programs catches-up any new Arrowmen with the OA. Jumpstart's flash presentations and interactivity will help to seal the bond of Brotherhood, helping lodges and Arrowmen throughout the nation. You can visit Jumpstart at http://jumpstart.oa-bsa.org.  We urge every Arrowman (new or not so new) to visit this website and get trained.

Leadership in Service Award
In recognition of the Order of the Arrow's heritage of service, the National Order of the Arrow Committee created a new three-year Leadership in Service Program which was announced at the 2004 NOAC. The Order strives to strengthen Scouting's foundation of service by further fostering in Arrowmen the ethic of servant leadership. By promoting and rewarding service that benefits the Boy Scouts of America's outdoor program, and the communities in which Scouts reside, the Order will be acting to support Scouting at the most important level.
