Conclave
Conclave will be held the weekend of November 19-21 at Lost Pines. All members of the North Shore Order of the Arrow are invited to attend. This is one of the most fun events that the OA offers.
What is Conclave?
The short answer: It’s a lot of fun! The section Conclave is an annual event involving all of the lodges in an established geographic area, called a “section.” The purpose is to train with each other to develop as Arrowmen and as leaders. Each Conclave is led by section youth officers elected from among the member lodges at the previous year’s Conclave, and the event itself is prepared in cooperation with various other lodge officers, and with one lodge serving as the “service lodge.” The SR-3 Conclave is an annual gathering of the seven lodges of our section. It’s a great weekend of fun, training, competitions, and fellowship!
Why should I attend Conclave?
Conclave is the biggest and best event of the lodge year! Conclave is a full weekend of activities and experiences designed to take Scouting to the next level. Conclave offers the best opportunity to engage in top-notch training, flawless OA ceremonies, intriguing individual and group Indian dance competitions, and friendly athletic competitions. The weekend is topped off with a Saturday night show and feast, patch trading, and section officer elections. Finally, Conclave is the only event at which lodges can earn the coveted Spirit Award, the hard-fought Quest for the Golden Arrow Award, and the prestigious Lodge of the Year Award. Conclave will have you coming back year after year.
