The National Order of the Arrow Conference is the best part of 2012 for the Order of the Arrow. There will be over 8,000 arrowmen at this event competing in athletic events, scout skills, and Indian affairs. This year NOAC will be at Michigan State University. You can come to classes that range from learning about patch ethics to ordeal management. To attend this event you will need to pay the first payment of $100 by January 31st, the second payment of $100 by February 29th, and the total due will be $450 for the youth and $800 for an adult. This event will be a great way to learn about the order, and a great way to other arrowmen from you lodge and from other lodges.

The National Leadership Seminar (NLS) is a weekend conference focusing on the skills and characteristics of leadership. It is intended primarily to enhance the leadership skills of the order of the arrows key youth and adult members, as they seek to improve their service to the BSA and the greater community. The NLS provides participants with: a better understanding of the skills of leadership, and how to apply them; a realization that, with practice and work, everyone can improve their leadership skills; and an understanding that different situations require the application of different leadership skills. Lodge officers, key youth lodge committee chairs, and up-and-coming lodge youth leadership are encouraged to attend. It is recommended that the youth be at least fourteen years of age but it is not required. Also selected adults with key roles in lodge leadership are encouraged to attend. The National Lodge Adviser Training Seminar (NLATS) is a weekend conference (same weekend as the NLS) focusing on the skills and attributes of effective lodge advisers. It is intended primarily to enhance an adviser’s knowledge of connecting with the OA’s Strategic plan. This will be on the 2nd of March at a price of $100 per person; the money is due to the council office by February 15th.
