Order of the Arrow (OA) Induction - New Members

Induction and Service Weekend
New Members
To become a member of Colonneh Lodge, Scouts elected into the Order of the Arrow (OA) by their unit must attend a Lodge Induction and Service Weekend within their eligibility period (18 months from election date). If you don't complete it within this timeframe, you'll need to be re-elected by your unit.
Key Requirements:
- You must complete a Colonneh Lodge Induction and Service Weekend to become an official Order of the Arrow member
- You do not need to participate in a call-out ceremony
Communications: Event information will be sent to the email address provided in your unit's election results through Lodgemaster (our lodge membership management system). We will not use the email entered in this registration form.
Required Orientation Meeting: All attendees must attend a virtual orientation session via Zoom. Dates and meeting links will be emailed the week before the event and posted on the OA Portal.
Financial aid is available to individuals with a demonstrated need. An application is required.
