Service Days/Weekends

OA Service Days and Weekends are an opportunity for Arrowmen to give back by providing much-needed service to council camps! Some service weekends are held on the same weekend as an Ordeal. Help is needed from all Arrowmen. Elangomats are also needed on Ordeal weekends.

SHAC Corps

S.H.A.C. (Scouts Helping at Camp) Corps is an opportunity for troops and crews to give back to camp in the form of a day of service. The Order of the Arrow is leading this opportunity, but this service project is open to all troops, crews and ships. Camp is providing a special patch that will only be available to those who provide service. Service projects could include camp maintenance, creating trails, and developing program areas. Letters will be given to youth who need school service hours. The deadline for registration is the Tuesday prior to the event. Registration is completed by the unit leader or individual Arrowmen (OA members) attending on their own. The registration fee includes four meals.

Golden Ticket

The Golden Ticket is an annual, one-time registration fee for one year of dues, the main lodge events, Section Conclave, and unlimited Ordeal staffing. Golden Ticket holders still need to pre-register for each event to help ensure there is enough food and program supplies. The Golden Tickets includes a Golden Ticket lodge flap, 2023 Fall Fellowship, staff for 2023 Ordeals and Service Weekends, staff for all 2023 SHAC Corps, and one year of lodge dues* (one additional year of credit will be given).   The Scholarship Golden Ticket includes everything offered for Golden Ticket plus Vigil Weekend (must be a Vigil member to attend) and $25 goes to scholarships to help offset the cost of attending lodge and/or section events for youth members needing financial assistance. Now that some 2023 events have passed, the price is now $180. Scholarship Golden Ticket holders also receive a 2023 Scholarship Golden Ticket Lodge Flap.

Time to Pay Dues

Colonneh Lodge dues are renewed annually online. Dues are only $25. Back dues do not have to be paid. For questions regarding dues status or pocket flap orders, contact dues@colonneh.org. Don't wait, remember Arrowmen must be a dues-paid member to participate in lodge activities.

Pay Dues

The Order of the Arrow, Scouting's Honor Society, is made up of thousands of great Scouts and Scouters like yourself, who were elected to the Order by their fellow Scouts because they saw something in you, something special - those qualities of trust, leadership, friendship, brotherhood, and a desire to serve others - that set you apart.

You undertook the Ordeal to prove your dedication to the high ideals of service that is the hallmark of our Order. Perhaps you have achieved an even greater understanding of Wimachtendienk, Wingolauchsik, Witahemui by sealing your membership through the Brotherhood, or even now keep the flame of cheerful service alive through leadership in service. You are an Arrowman and we ask that you continue your support for the Order of the Arrow and its worthy goals which are more important now than ever.

An active member in Colonneh Lodge is someone who is a currently registered Scout or Scouter in the Sam Houston Area Council with current dues paid. With active membership, you are entitled to attend all functions of the lodge appropriate for your honor level. It also entitles you to wear your OA flap. Technically, if you don’t pay your dues, you are not a member, and the flap should be removed from your uniform.

Think back on your Ordeal. Remember the Obligation and Admonition. Remember ... "The ones, who chose you, need you."
