Have you ever been on a campout, outing or at a meeting and suddenly needed a good song, story, prayer or even a Scout principle? Would you be interested in a small booklet that you can easily stuff in your back pocket, backpack or purse?

 

At the 2012 Thunderbird Adventure Weekend such a book appeared. It is 64 pages (double-sided), bound with plastic cover and has a place for your contact information. The booklet has a convenient table of contents to enable quick lookup.

Sections in the booklet include:

  1. Patriotic Songs -- use for flag ceremonies
  2. Religious Songs -- use for Scout's Own
  3. Western Songs & Ballads
  4. Scouting Songs -- good for hiking
  5. Woodbadge Songs
  6. Fun Songs
  7. Stories (short) -- for campfire fun
  8. Scouting Ideals - Cub, Boy, Venturing Oaths, Safe Swim
  9. Prayers

It can be downloaded free (licensed under Creative Commons Attribution) from the web (click here) or purchased at cost (no profit) from David Black 512-850-4322 for only $6.00 (cheaper than if you do it yourself in small quantities). Only while supplies last. I can take credit cards on request.

OA Brotherhood membership
Written by Robert Dugan

Do you want to attain your Brotherhood membership in the Order of the Arrow?

 

If you have been an Ordeal member for at least 10 months and are current with your Lodge dues, you are eligible for Brotherhood membership.

 

First, download this PDF:

http://tonkawa99.org/index.php?option=com_joomdoc&task=doc_download&gid=13&Itemid=179

If that link does not work, browse on over to tonkawa99.org and use the menu Membership/Brotherhood/Study Guide to find the PDF.

 

I also have an audio version of the Study Guide if you are the kind of person that studies better by listening.  It works well if you are sitting in traffic.  Email me for MP3s at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .

 

After familiarzing yourself with the Study Guide, you need to be questioned.  The easiest way to be questioned is at one of the following events:

  • Chapter Meeting (7:00 on 1st Thursday of every month)
  • District Adventure Weekend
  • Spring or Fall Assembly

After you have passed your questioning, you should get a "blue card" that needs to be signed by a Chapter Officer and the Chapter Advisor.

 

Bring that blue card to an event that will hold a Brotherhood ceremony.  This year the Chapter will have a Brotherhood ceremony Saturday night at DAW.  Or, you can attend a ceremony at one of the Assemblies at Lost Pines.

 

If you plan on attending your Brotherhood ceremony at DAW this year, please bring a $16 check made out to "Tonkawa 99".
