Takeoff To Conclave
Bonds of Brotherhood
•
Morning activities (trainings) will represent the briefing/education part
of militaristic training. The games and activities in the afternoon will
represent the combat/missions part of the military. Then, based on the
number of morning activities and afternoon activities, each Arrowmen
will receive a rank. These ranks, based upon actual ranks of the
military, will be divided into different tiers. Each Arrowmen’s name will
be placed into a raffle depending on the tier they are in, and the prize
given will reflect how high a rank the Arrowmen achieved. Mike Gray
mentioned Lodge Ball during his presentation, and it would go well with
this topic. Many veterans talk about how the people they trained and
fought with are like brothers to them, so, this ties into the OA because it
would be emphasizing the Bonds of Brotherhood and working together
to accomplish goals. To achieve this, many games would require to be
scored as a team sport rather than an individual sport. Scavenger
hunts and orienteering would go well with this as well.

OA: The Final Frontier
•
This idea focuses on targeting the newer and
younger Arrowmen as well as supplying opportunities
to the older Arrowmen as well. It also, if people get
the reference, will appeal to the adults. The thinking,
if the adults come, youth will come. If you yourself did
not understand the reference, it references Star Trek.
The idea, like exploring space, is to explore the OA
more in depth. Hopefully it will inspire Arrowmen and
receive more participation. Thus, morning activities
will have sessions geared towards beginning,
intermediate, and advanced Arrowmen.

Fellowship of the Arrow
•
Each Lodge will represent one of the five good
races: Dwarf, Elf, Wizard, Human, and Hobbit.
Each Lodge LEC would vote and submit a
statement saying which race they would like. First
come first serve. Trainings would focus on
cooperation and, like the title suggests, fellowship.
The afternoon activities, as seen in the host lodge
presentation, would cooperate well with this topic.
The big picture to take away is that we are all
different, but when we come together in fellowship
we are even stronger.

Arrow’s Guild
•
Individuals, upon arriving, will receive one guild of x
number of guilds. Groups would then camp together in
those areas. If people have a buddy and want to camp
with them, that’s okay. The idea is to promote working
together and strengthening brotherhood. The more
morning activities one attends, the more skill they
become: Novice, Apprentice, Expert, and Master. The
same thing goes for the afternoon activities. There will be
two separate raffles, and again whichever tier you reach,
your name will be put in. This also allows for Arrowmen
from different Lodges to talk to each other and give each
other ideas of how to better each others’ Lodge.
