Beaver Weekend
REGISTRATION NOW OPEN!!!!!!
Join us May 16th - 18th to help Grimes set up for Summer Camp!
Held at Camp Grimes, our purpose is to help the council prepare for their summer programs. Both Arrowmen and Non-Arrowmen will have an opportunity to contribute to our council camp. This is appreciated by the summer camp staff members and is a great way to earn points for the Leadership in Service Award. Beaver Festival is also the first of the three Ordeal held each year to allow candidates to seal their membership in the Order of the Arrow. Brotherhood conversions are also offered.
The Ordeal is a weekend experience in which those elected as candidates to the Order of the Arrow and undertake a spiritual journey to discover the true meanings of leadership, service, and the Brotherhood of Scouting. The candidates go through two ceremonies, engage in service for the camp, and perform other service tasks.
