OA Indian Head Welcome to the Order of the Arrow and Wauna La-Mon'tay Lodge! Achieving Ordeal Membership means you persevered through the challenges of the Ordeal, and for that you should be very proud of yourself. Just remember, "this ordeal is but a pattern for a journey whose directions are the whispers, urgings, promptings deep within your hearts and spirits". What you have learned in the ordeal is just the beginning of your lofty journey. There are unlimited opportunities to provide cheerful service, and countless moments where you will see the brotherhood our Order is known for. We hope that you experience all of them!

Each Chapter meets on a regular basis in your local area, usually at a Roundtable, and is a great way to become active in the Order. Contact your Chapter Chief or Chapter Adviser for information about your next Chapter meeting. Not sure who they are? No problem, simply look at the Leadership Roster here.
