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.
While Lowwapaneu Lodge provides service to our camps during our Fellowship events and Ordeals, there is other service that may go unnoticed. Lowwapaneu Lodge joined the Northeastern Pennsylvania Council at the 2023 Merit Badge College, providing service to help the event run smoothly. Check out our lodge leadership's take on service to our council here.
