The National Order of the Arrow Conference (NOAC) is one of the most amazing experiences one can ever have, and one each of us will want to remember forever. How better to remember it than to write the stories that tell all those back home about the Conference? That is exactly what the Arrowman Press Corps (APC) does. It allows Arrowmen to be creative in relaying information about the largest Order of the Arrow event of the year.
If you enjoy writing, photography, serving your Brothers, and above all want to have a great time, then the Arrowman Press Corps is the place for you. We also have a variety of tools to help you write the best articles possible, and the resources to help you get the article edited and sent to your hometown news. The Corps gets special access to parts of NOAC that no normal Arrowman gets access too, like:
Interested?
After securing your spot in your lodge's delegation to the national conference, you can register for the Arrowmen Press Corps at the online NOAC event registration web site. Before registering, make sure to get approval from both your lodge chief and adviser, and make sure that you have received approval to write for your local paper or your council/lodge newsletter. Please apply early, as only a limited number of spots are available in the Corps.
The press corps will receive information about their duties during the conference over the summer, as well as the time and location of the training for the Arrowman Press Corps. During this training, we will do all we can to make your releases the best they can be, while making sure that you still stay involved in all the great fun that NOAC is and can be.
Individuals need to pre-register for this event online at the NOAC event registration web site.
