Best of the Best - "BOB"

As we all know, the Order of the Arrow is full of the best people, ideas, and programs. On the morning of Founder's Day, selected lodges from across the country will deliver short, 15-minute presentations, workshops, and demonstrations about topics at which they excel.

If a lodge is selected to do a presentation at the Best of the Best, it will be designated an official Founder's Lodge for NOAC 2000, recognized with a special award, and the presenters will receive BOB caps.

YOUR LODGE COULD BE ONE OF THOSE SELECTED!

What is involved

If selected, your lodge provides:

• Six 15 minute sessions (5 min. between sessions) by the lodge leadership, jam packed with fun and information about a particular area in which they excel.

The NOAC staff provide:
