As the 2018 Lodge year picks up steam, lets recap on a great night of fun and fellowship that we had to celebrate all the successes and achievements of 2017, our 2017 Holiday Banquet hosted at Al Mia Amore restaurant. It was a fun night full of celebration and recognition, where the torch was passed onto a new set of officers and committee chairmen. Besides swearing in the new officers, awards were given out such as the James West Award, the Founders Award, and Committee of the Year. New Vigil Honor Members of the Lodge were also recognized at the banquet. There was great food and great fellowship all around, and of course, there was the patch auction. Overall it was a fantastic experience for everyone in attendance. A spectacular way to end a great year for the Lodge, and an even better way to kick off another spectacular year for the Lodge.

NAA stands for Native American Activities. One of the biggest part of the NAA is our drum team. They compete at Conclave and NOAC and go to blue and gold dinners as well as the Indian village at Harvest Fest and Merit Badge College. The NAA is also very active at Goose Pond Scout Reservation throughout every summer. To learn how to become more involved in the NAA committee, or to just learn more about it please contact Chris Higgins through the email provided at the lodge website.

The Pemachpin award, meaning “To Be Present” is a participation award meant to recognize those who will actively participate in the lodge in 2018.
Anyone who wants to earn this award will have to perform various tasks such as attending LECs, attending Ordeal Weekends, participating in service projects, serving on a committee, etc. Those who do earn the award will be able to receive it at the holiday banquet in December and will have their name printed in Smoke Signals as being a recipient of the Pemachpin Award.

This event was all about getting Cub Scouts into the outdoors and exposed to fun and educational activities for a day. Winter Fun Day was held at Kirby Park on January 13. This was also a chance for the members of the Order of the Arrow who are planning to attend NOAC to do a little fundraising to help pay for some of the expenses. This fundraiser was a great success, despite cold weather, because the Cub Scouts who attended and all the volunteers who helped had a blast. The OA contingent at this event provided assistance with cooking and serving the food. Finally, I would like to say thank you to all the OA members who came out and helped.

Merit Badge College was another huge success this year. As always the goal is to provide scouts with a chance to earn merit badges by meeting with new counselors and scouts. The Lodge helped out at registration, running merit badges along side counselors, as well as reading and checking off pre-reqs. Our involvement and all the behind the scenes work that was done allowed the whole day to run as smoothly as it did. A huge thank you to everyone who came out in the bitter weather to support the event.
