The Order of the Arrow is Scouting’s
National Honor Society. Tom Kita Chara Lodge provides service to
Samoset Council, especially through its summer program, by offering
opportunities for Scouts to experience fellowship, service, and
personal growth.
OA Summer Program
- In-Camp Scoutmasters must
verify Ordeal candidates with the OA Coordinator on Sunday at
the Leaders Meeting. Even units not having anyone Called-Out
must still touch base with the OA Coordinator at the mentioned
time.
- $35.00 must be paid to the OA
Coordinator for each candidate going through his Ordeal.
- Sandpainting/Call-Out preparation
on Wednesday is open to all Arrowmen.
- Those Arrowmen under 21 years of
age may participate in OA ceremonies with permission from the OA
Coordinator, whose discretion determines final role assignments.
Parts cannot be guaranteed.
- Those interested in serving as
Ordeal Masters on Thursday should see the OA Coordinator.
- Tom Kita Chara Arrowmen interested
in becoming Brotherhood members are invited to complete their
interviews on Thursday. $14.00 will cover the cost of a
Brotherhood sash.

Non-Samoset Council Units
- Non-Samoset Council Ordeal candidates who wish to be
Called-Out at Tesomas need to
provide a verification letter. One letter per unit will
suffice as long as it includes a unit number,
names of candidates along with youth/adult designation, and
the Unit’s period at Camp. The
letter must be signed by the Unit’s local Lodge Chief, Lodge
Adviser, and Staff Adviser. The
signature of the Unit’s local Council Scout Executive is
acceptable in place of the Lodge Key
Three. The letter should be sent to Tesomas (c/o OA
Coordinator) by June 1, 2007.
- Non-Samoset Council Ordeal members cannot earn
Brotherhood at Tesomas.
- Non-Samoset Council Arrowmen are welcome to attend the
OA ceremonies.
Scoutmaster Belt Buckles
Tom Kita Chara Lodge is once again proud to sponsor this Program. A
limited edition belt buckle will be given to the In-Camp Scoutmaster
from each Unit meeting the following standards:
- The Unit and In-Camp Scoutmaster stay the entire
week in Camp.
- The Unit operates independently without being a
combination of Units.
