Arrowmen:
1) Please join us tomorrow evening for our monthly Talahi Chapter meeting.
After reviewing the ongoing elections and conducting our Chapter business, we
will enjoy a presentation on OA memorabilia by famed and noted historian and Boy Scout and OA
scholar, Mr. Ken Majka. Mr Majka will be displaying and
explaining some of his vast BSA & OA memorabilia and paraphernalia. I'm
sure everyone will be informed and entertained!!
2) We still have a few
elections remaining to be conducted, and if anyone would like to assist, we can
still use help with these unit elections. If any adult or
youth member is interested in participating, please let the Chapter Chief know
so he can schedule some elections for you. "Many hands make
light work." Remember: we're the Brotherhood of Cheerful
Service. There are only a few elections remaining, and they only take
about 30 minutes or less to complete.
3) We will also discuss new OA
Awards which can be earned by the troop, the Scoutmaster, the Troop OA Rep, and
the Troop OA Rep Adviser - the Order of the Arrow Unit of Excellence
Award. Handouts will be available.
4) All kinds of fun and exciting OA opportunities
coming up - Spring
Fellowship, Section Conclave, District Camporee and OA Callouts, and Ordeals.
We'll talk about dates, locations and costs. Brotherhood Q&A handouts
will be available.
5) Time to pay your 2013 dues!
Still a bargain at only $10! Be the first on your block with a brand-new
OA membership card!! If Scoutmasters want to send a list of OA
members and a check, we can get all your cards to you at one time.
Attendance has been a little low the
last several months. Have we lost your interest? Tell your
Chapter Chief what
you want him to provide to make your meetings more interesting and enjoyable.
As always,
the Talahi
Chapter meets the 3rd Tuesday of each month at 7:30 p.m., at the Elks
Lodge, located at 601 W. Pioneer Pkwy, Arlington, TX 76010. We will next meet at 7:30 PM on Tuesday,
February 19, 2013. The chapter officers and I would like to invite all Arrowmen to
attend our meeting. If you're a regular attendee, it will be great to see you
again. If you haven't been to a meeting in a while, please come and
reconnect with the Order of the Arrow - we've missed you!
Yours in Brotherhood,
Gary Faletti
Talahi Chapter Adviser
