Brothers,

Looking back on 2020, the one thing that has stood out to me the most by far, has been our ability to come together in uncertain times and work unselfishly for the benefit of others. This value is inherent in the core of the Order of the Arrow. The Brotherhood of the OA has carried us through the challenges of the past few months, and will certainly be a vital component of what is to come. With the theme of Building Back Through Brotherhood, the next few months are very promising for our Lodge. The 2021 Officers and I look forward to putting on many new and exciting events, beginning in a virtual setting, and leading into a variety of in person opportunities including the 2021 Conclave at GPSR in June. In order for these efforts to be successful however, we require your help. Whether it be logging on to a virtual meeting or coming out to a Fellowship event at the pond, your participation is essential. Now, more than ever, we must all do our part to fuel the fire of Brotherhood in order to help one another thrive in trying times. 

In the coming weeks, make sure to stay connected to Lowwapaneu through email, social media, and any other means available. That way, you won’t miss out on any of the fantastic programs that will soon be coming your way. If you hear about an upcoming event that sparks your interest, reach out and invite a friend who’s also in the OA! It’s up to us to work with each other and ensure that everyone can get the most out of their time in Scouting. Feel free to reach out to me at This email address is being protected from spambots.

I look forward to seeing you all once again, either virtually or in person when the time comes.
