Contingent Leaders
Serving as a council contingent leader for the National Order of the Arrow Conference (NOAC) is a great honor and a great responsibility. Your efforts will ensure the success of the conference as seen by the youth that attend from your council.
The NOAC 2015 conference fee is $475 and registration opened August 1, 2014.
Please refer to the October announcements on the NOAC capacity limit:
This website will provide information and tools to help you be successful. In addition to information on reservations and registration, you can find
promotion flyers, posters, videos, and other material to assist in promoting NOAC in your lodge. More information and details will be added to this site as conference plans are developed so be sure to check back often!

NOAC Medical Form Submission
For the 2015 conference, guests and
staff will submit an electronic medical form with a personalized barcode. Only the BSA Annual Health and Medical Record form encoded with
the Arrowman's personal barcode will be accepted. Additional information on the
process is available on the NOAC
Medical Form Submission page.
No Day Passes
Unfortunately, due to logistical challenges presented by the significant
registration turn-out as well as university requirements, day passes to visit
the National Order of the Arrow Conference will not be available. Scouts and
Scouters who wish to experience NOAC will have to do so as a registered member
of a contingent, staff member or official invited guest. Only those individuals
who display the proper credentials will be allowed to participate in program
area activities, training, arena Shows and exhibits.
Contingent Transportation
Contingent leaders can update their travel advisory information in the
NOAC Registration
System. While you’re on the registration portal, there are PDF documents
available for download that provide specifics on airport shuttle and travel
arrangements. Staff members arriving early should follow the instructions in the
“DTW Shuttle Bus Information” tab to register for the staff bus.
