Summer Camp Cracker Barrels
Feed your Tamagotchi and grab your Moon Shoes to Wa-Hi-Nasa’s Summer Camp Cracker barrels!
Summer Camp Cracker Barrels take place every Wednesday night for all 4 weeks of Boxwell Summer Camp. They are a time for fellow Order of the Arrow members to come together for games, music, food, and fellowship. This year, the Cracker barrels are all themed to run with the summer camp 90s theme.
There is no sign-up fee or registration required for any of the 4 weeks. All OA members (Including you!) are welcome to attend, even if you are not attending summer camp!
Hope to see you there!

Conclave Recap The 2023 E3 Section Conclave: Ragnarok was an absolute blast! The lodge contingent was able to participate in morning training, patch trading, afternoon activities, and the annual Quest games, where our Wa-Hi-Nasa Lodge youth won 2nd place while our Lodge Adults won the cornhole tournament and Dutch oven cook-off! We are so happy we were able to see one of our very own Lucas Buckner be elected as our new E3 Section Vice-Chief! We can’t wait to see everyone and how Conclave plays out next year!
