About

For over 100 years, the Order of the Arrow (OA) has recognized Scouts and Scouters who exemplify the Scout Oath and Law daily. The OA is Scouting’s National Honor Society. As an integral part of Scouting America, the OA delivers peer-led advanced leadership experiences that help to build lifelong bonds through service and enrich each member’s Scouting journey. OA members are defined by the fellowship they share, service to others, commitment to personal growth, and self-driven initiative to make a difference in their community.

Vision, Mission, and Purpose

The Order of the Arrow was founded in 1915 to serve a useful purpose: to forge lifelong bonds among the leaders in Scouting and recognize those who exemplify the Scout Oath and Law in their daily lives and, through that recognition, cause others to act in the same way. To this day, the Order of the Arrow is dedicated to this high purpose.
