Tito Wa Chapter

Serving Yolo County

 

The Order of the Arrow is Scouting's National Honor Society.  Just as Troop 139 provides opportunities for scouts with its program, the Order of the Arrow offers additional opportunities for OA members--especially in the area of leadership and service. Nine scouts and three adult leaders in Troop 139 are members of the Order.

Tito Wa Chapter meetings are scheduled on the first Thursday of each month, September through June

 

Time: 7:00PM-8:00PM
Location:

Davis Community Church

(In the basement)

Address: 412 C Street Davis

The purpose of the Order of the Arrow is fourfold:

  • To recognize those Scout campers who best exemplify the Scout Oath and Law in their daily lives
  • To develop and maintain camping traditions and spirit
  • To promote Scout camping
  • To crystallize the Scout habit of helpfulness into a life purpose of leadership in cheerful service to others

Scouts are elected to the Order by their fellow unit members, following approval by the Scoutmaster or Varsity team Coach. To become a member, a youth must be a registered member of a Boy Scout troop or Varsity Scout team and hold First Class rank. The youth must have experienced fifteen days and nights of Boy Scout camping during the two-year period prior to the election. The fifteen days and nights must include one, but no more than one, long-term camp consisting of six consecutive days and five nights of resident camping, approved and under the auspices and standards of the Boy Scouts of America. The balance of the camping must be overnight, weekend, or other short-term camps.

Tito Wa Chapter conducts Troop and Team elections during January, February and March each year.
