Arrowmen Needed to Staff

Adventure Base 100 at Indiana State Fair

 

Jaccos Towne Lodge is in charge of staffing Adventure Base 100 at the Indiana State Fair August 13-15, 2010.  Arrowmen are needed for shifts from 9 am to 9 pm.  The Lodge will purchase tickets to allow volunteers to enter the fairgrounds.  Members of the LEC should watch for an email from the Lodge Chief regarding shifts and should pass the word to Arrowmen in their chapters.  The Lodge is aware that the weekend is also Firecrafter Grand Ritual, but the Council is depending on the Lodge to provide 40 Arrowmen at all times for these three days.  If you are willing and interested in helping, please contact the Lodge or your Chapter Chief.   For more information on Adventure Base 100, please go to http://www.adventurebase100.org/.

Lodge Receives Goodman Camping Award

Award

 

 

The E. Urner Goodman Award was established in 1969 as a tribute and testimonial to the Order's founder, E. Urner Goodman. Its purpose is to encourage and challenge Order of the Arrow members and lodges to increase their effectiveness in promoting and increasing Scout camping in each council. Awards are presented to two outstanding lodges in each region annually.

 

Jaccos Towne Lodge has made a concentrated effort to do summer camp promotions in all units and to work with District Camping Committees to promote camping.  That effort has been recognized by the National Order of the Arrow Committee with the E. Urner Goodman Camping Award!
