Following the Evening Star 60 Years of the Loquanne Allangwh Lodge #428 Following the Evening Star 60 years of the Loquanne Allangwh Lodge #428. Celebrating 100 years of the Order of the Arrow Founding of Boy Scouts and the Order of the Arrow W.D. Boyce, a newspaper magnate who was saved in the London fog by a British Boy Scout and taken to Lord Robert Baden-Powell, the founder of Scouting, founded the Boy Scouts of America during the Progressive Era. In the United States, Boyce combined Baden-Powell’s military and chivalric Scouting for Boys with Ernest Thompson Seton’s Woodcraft Indians and Daniel Carter Beard’s Sons of Daniel Boone including American Indian crafts and pioneer skills into the Boy Scouts of America. The American Scouting movement officially began in 1910 and received a Congressional Charter in 1916. E. Urner Goodman and Carroll A. Edson founded the Order of the Arrow at the Treasurer Island Scout Reservation near Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1915. Goodman and Edson agreed that the Scouting program should exemplify the Scout Oath and Law not only Scoutcraft skills. The Order of the Arrow would use the crafts and dress of the American Indian to reach this goal. Nearly one hundred years later, the Order of the Arrow continues to serve local councils and camps acMorriss the United States. Boy Scouting in Northeast Texas and Southeast Oklahoma The Boy Scouts of America reached the four states region of Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Louisiana almost as soon as it was founded. Various churches and civic organizations chartered the earliest Boy Scout troops and the Scoutmasters dealt directly with the National Office in New York City for charters, uniforms and advancement materials. In 1919, the Paris Area Council expanded to cover the entire Scouting Program in all of Lamar County forming the Lamar County Council led by Scout Executive, Frank Fuller. In 1928, the council stretched to serve the City of Commerce and the counties of Delta, Fannin, Franklin, Hopkins, Titus, Red River, and Morris. The new council was called the Lone Star Area Council. In 1930, the Kiamichi Area Council of Oklahoma disbanded and the Pushmataha and Choctaw Counties of Eastern Oklahoma joined the Lone Star Area Council. In 1944, McCurtain County, Oklahoma and Camp County, Texas were transferred from the Caddo Area Council based in Texarkana, Texas. In 1955, the board chose to change the name of the Lone Star Area Council in order to better represent the counties in both Texas and Oklahoma. That year the council was named the NeTseO Trails Council effectively representing North East Texas and South East Oklahoma and the various American Indian and pioneer trails that stretched acMorriss the area. The NeTseO Trails Council exists still representing the Boy Scouts of the City of Commerce and the Texas counties of Camp, Delta, Fannin, Franklin, Hopkins, Morris, Red River, Titus and the Oklahoma counties of Choctaw, McCurtain, and Pushmataha. The council operates a Cub Scout, Boy Scout, and the Venturer/Explorer Program; owns F.H. Dierks Scout Camp near Wright City, Oklahoma and Hogue’s Landing Cub Scout Camp near Powderly, Texas. The Order of the Arrow Lodge, Loquanne Allangwh Lodge 428, was organized in 1950. The Order of the Arrow Grows In Texas and Oklahoma The founding of Loquanne Allangwh Lodge 428 occurred 35 years after the formation of the Order of the Arrow by E. Urner Goodman and Carroll A. Edson. Frank Fuller, Lone Star Area Council Scout Executive, did not want the program in the council. Meanwhile, Scouts in nearby councils were organizing various Order of the Arrow lodges. The Okiciyapi Lodge 56 of the Texoma Valley Council was founded in 1930 with the Thunderbird as its totem. The Tonkawa Lodge 72 was founded in the East Texas Area Council in 1934 with the Hand Clasp as its totem; it would later change its name to the Tejas Lodge 72. Three years later, Mikanakwa Lodge 101 was organized in the Circle 10 Council with the Owl as the totem. Then, in 1943 Scouts of the Caddo Area Council founded the Akela Wahinapay Lodge 232 with the Water Bottle as its totem. To the north, the Oskihoma Lodge 320 was formed in 1945. The Lone Star Area Council was surrounded in all directions by Order of the Arrow lodges by the time Fuller retired in the 1950’s. Boy Scouts in the Lone Star Area Council wanted more and its neighboring lodges would help it along the way. Ross Morriss and Loquanne Allangwh In the late 1940’s, Ross Morriss was a Boy Scout from Texarkana. In the summers, his troop would travel to Camp Pioneer near Mena, Arkansas for summer camp. One year, he was “tapped out” or called to join the Order of the Arrow. Morriss enjoyed the Order of the Arrow and was very active in the Akela Wahinapay Lodge 232. In 1949, he earned the rank of Eagle Scout before moving to Mount Pleasant, Texas with his family. Morriss joined a local Boy Scout troop but was the only Order of the Arrow member in the council. A lodge did not exist yet in the Lone Star Area Council because the Scout Executive, Frank Fuller, did not want the program in the council. Once Fuller retired though, Scouts began to ask about forming an Order of the Arrow Lodge there. Scoutmasters knew that the Order of the Arrow was beneficial to the council and their Scouts. They also knew Morriss was already a member of the Brotherhood so they asked him to help organize a lodge. Morriss travelled all over the council raising interest in the program. Once Morriss had enough prospective members, he took Bryan Sparks, Gene Danner, Jim Danner, Charles King, Ray Haywood, Robert Grove, Austin Skinner, R.P. Woodby, Jud Jones, and Mack Love to Camp Wisdom to stand the Ordeal held by Mikanakwa Lodge 101 in August 1949. Morriss quickly applied to the National Lodge for a local charter. He chose the Evening Star for the lodge totem as it had hung over the Ordeal Ceremonies that first time and because the council was the Lone Star Area Council. The lodge was therefore named Loquanne Allangwh (LO-gwa-nee Al-ain-gwh), Lenne Lenape for the Evening Star. The lodge officially chartered in 1950 and held the first Ordeal at Camp Clark near Paris that summer with a candidate from every troop in the council. The following Brothers were inducted into the Order of the Arrow on this in August 1950: Charles Richardson, Lake Creek George Cox, Commerce Joe W. Bills, Howland Bill Kendrick, Antlers John Wood, Bonham Richard Carpenter, Sulphur Springs Church Arledge, Bonham Isham Jones, Sulphur Springs Gary Long, Bonham Heward Griggs, Sulphur Springs L.F.

Pleasant Frank Bear, Hugo Harlon Worsham, Mt. Pleasant Robert Scott, Hugo J. Walton Skinner, Paris Dan Davis, Hugo Hampy Hodges, Paris Ed Wallace, Hugo Calvin Thompson, Hugo Bob McKenzie, Commerce The first Lodge Executive Council was elected that summer. It was composed of Ross Morriss, Lodge Chief, Mt. Pleasant; Dan Davis, Vice Chief, Hugo; Robert Grove, Scribe, Commerce; Jim Danner, Lodge Adviser, Bonham and Mack Love, Paris, Staff Adviser. Soon after the Ordeal, Morriss attended the 2nd National Order of the Arrow Conference at Indiana University celebrating the 35th anniversary of the Order of the Arrow with the Brothers of the Akela Wahinapey Lodge 232. The summer camp of 1951 at Camp Clark presented members of the Lodge an opportunity to meet and develop the first lodge patch. The Lodge elected Morriss to Lodge Chief for another year that Fall. The Lodge Officers of 1952 were William McDowell, Vice-Chief, Sulphur Springs; Hampy Hodges, Scribe, Paris; Gary Long, Treasurer, Bonham; R.P. Woodby, Ordeal Chairman, Delmar; Lodge Advisor was again Jim Danner of Bonham. That summer W.M. McNeely, Bill Harper, Tom McConnell, and Jan Parnell of Sulphur Springs; Jim Busby and Marvin Biggerstaff of Commerce; Ross Morriss and Reggie McDonough of Mt. Pleasant; Jimmy Hunt of Talco; Jerry Wright of Cooper; R.P. Woodby of Lake Creek; Wallace Emerson of Sulphur Bluff; Jerry Palmer of Ponca City; Robert Wilson, Robert Young and Herbert Westmoreland of Idabel all attended the 3rd National Order of the Arrow Conference at Miami University in Cincinnati, Ohio during August. That year Morris was honored with being the first Brother of the Loquanne Allangwh Lodge 428 to receive the Vigil Honor. Not long after Gene and Jim Danner were selected as Vigil Honor members. This year the Lodge started the Flintrock Newsletter for its membership. In the Fall of 1952 the Brothers of Loquanne Allangwh 428 elected Tom McConnell of Sulphur Springs, Lodge Chief; Jackie Gilmore of Hugo, Vice Chief; James Busby of Commerce, Vice Chief; Fred Fuston of Paris, Secretary; William McNeely of Mt. Pleasant, editor of the Flintrock; and Isham Jones from Sulphur Springs was Lodge Advisor for the 1953 Lodge Executive Committee. In 1954, Lodge Officers were Johnny Simmons of Paris, Lodge Chief; Robert Wilson of Idabel, Vice Chief; Reggie McDonnough of Mt. Vernon, Vice Chief; Wallace Emerson of Sulphur Bluff, Vice Chief; Jimmy Wiggins, Scribe; William McNeely of Sulphur Springs, Editor of the Flintrock; Frat Davis of Sulphur Springs, assistant editor; Bob Cox of Paris was Lodge Advisor.

  • Lodge History
    History Tali Taktaki Lodge 70 The Order of the Arrow The Order of the Arrow (OA) was founded by Dr. E. Urner Goodman and Carroll A. Edson in 1915 at the Treasure Island Camp of the Philadelphia Council, Boy Scouts of America. It became an official program experiment in 1922 and was approved as part of the Scouting program in 1934. In 1948 the OA, recognized as the BSA’s national brotherhood of honor campers, became an official part of the Boy Scouts of America. In 1998, the Order of the Arrow became recognized as Scouting’s National Honor Society when it expanded its reach beyond camping to include broader service to Scouting and the community. Scouting’s Early Days in Greensboro The Boy Scout program began in Guilford County in central North Carolina in 1910 with the formation of Troop One. Their early history included a trip to Pilot Mountain by train and backpack. The troop participated each year in Memorial Day services where they escorted local Confederate veterans. Additional troops were formed in the area and a “Board” of local leaders was started in 1915. Greensboro Council was formed in 1918 with the hiring of Robert Denny as Scout Executive. The Council purchased property in 1924 for a local Scout camp. Troop One with Col. Robert E. Lee at 1912 Memorial Day Observance Camp Graystone began summer programs in 1926. In 1929 the growing council chartered its first Sea Scout Ship and its first troop for African-Americans. At the end of 1929 the Council reported 464 boys in the program.

Concurrent with my service to Scouting, I have been an avid collector of Scouting memorabilia with a particular interest in commissioner insignia. Over the years, I've acquired some information on the history of commissioner service and some documentation on various areas of commissioner insignia, but have not found a single document which covers both the historical aspects of such insignia while describing and identifying all the commissioner insignia in all program areas - Cub Scouting, Boy Scouting, Exploring, Venturing, and the various roundtables. This project does that and provides a pictorial identification guide to all the insignia as well as other uniform badges that recognize commissioners for tenure or service.

  • Order of the Arrow Brotherhood Requirements
    ORDER OF THE ARROW BROTHERHOOD REQUIREMENTS Ever since the inception of the Order of the Arrow in 1915, it was intended that all members should be equal in rank. Brotherhood membership does not provide a specific degree of rank, status, or special honor like that of the Vigil Honor. Instead, the Brotherhood is an opportunity for members to reaffirm their belief in the high purposes of the Order. The ceremony is intended as a source of inspiration that motivates brothers to give even greater service to Scouting. An Ordeal member may become a Brotherhood member when he has completed the five Challenges of Brotherhood Membership below: 1) Memorize the signs of OA Membership: A) Obligation I, (your name), do hereby promise on my honor as a Scout, that I will always and faithfully observe and preserve the traditions of the Order of the Arrow, Wimachtendienk, Wingolauchsik, Witahemui. I will always regard the ties of Brotherhood in the Order of the Arrow as lasting, and will seek to preserve a cheerful spirit even in the midst of irksome tasks and weighty responsibilities, and will endeavor, so far as in my power lies, to be unselfish in service and devotion to the welfare of others. B) OA Song “Firm bound in brotherhood, gather the clan that cheerful service brings to fellow man. Circle our council fire, weld tightly every link that binds us in brotherhood, Wimachtendienk.” C) Admonition Never said above a whisper. If you need your memory refreshed, check with a lodge officer or ceremonial team. D) Sign of Ordeal Membership Drawing an arrow from a quiver over the left shoulder with right arm.

  • Cub Scout Demonstrations Scouts USA Ceremonies
    (rev. 11Feb2019) Ajapeu Lodge 2 provides memorable and meaningful demonstrations for Cub Scout Packs and ceremonies for Scout Troops. You can request a demonstration performance or ceremony through our American Indian Affairs (AIA) committee by submitting a Ceremonies Team Request Form on line (see below for more details). Our demonstrations and ceremonies have a Native American theme and are performed in hand-made, period- authentic costume and regalia and are fully scripted by our Ceremonies team. Cub Scout Demonstrations As of January 1, 2019, national policy prohibits the OA from wearing regalia (costumes) in Cub Scout Arrow of Light and Crossover ceremonies. In addition, the OA is only permitted to use the scripts approved by the national committee for these 2 ceremonies. We will continue to perform demonstrations in full regalia prior to Arrow of Light and Crossover ceremonies conducted by Pack leaders and youth. Our demonstrations are designed to enhance your own Arrow of Light or Crossover ceremonies. While we do not typically perform the actual ceremony, our demonstrations create a fun and memorable atmosphere to set up your ceremony. Our period-authentic, hand-made regalia and tailored script are both suitable for Cub Scout-aged youth and respectful to Native American culture. If requested, we can also perform the actual Arrow of Light or Crossover ceremonies in accordance with national policy using the approved scripts and wearing the Field uniform with our OA sashes.

  • A Cartographic Depiction and Exploration of the Boy Scouts of America’S Historical Membership Patterns
    A Cartographic Depiction and Exploration of the Boy Scouts of America’s Historical Membership Patterns BY Matthew Finn Hubbard Submitted to the graduate degree program in Geography and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts. ____________________________ Chairperson Dr. Stephen Egbert ____________________________ Dr. Terry Slocum ____________________________ Dr. Xingong Li Date Defended: 11/22/2016 The Thesis committee for Matthew Finn Hubbard Certifies that this is the approved version of the following thesis: A Cartographic Depiction and Exploration of the Boy Scouts of America’s Historical Membership Patterns ____________________________ Chairperson Dr. Stephen Egbert Date approved: (12/07/2016) ii Abstract The purpose of this thesis is to examine the historical membership patterns of the Boy Scouts of America (BSA) on a regional and council scale. Using Annual Report data, maps were created to show membership patterns within the BSA’s 12 regions, and over 300 councils when available. The examination of maps reveals the membership impacts of internal and external policy changes upon the Boy Scouts of America. The maps also show how American cultural shifts have impacted the BSA. After reviewing this thesis, the reader should have a greater understanding of the creation, growth, dispersion, and eventual decline in membership of the Boy Scouts of America. Due to the popularity of the organization, and its long history, the reader may also glean some information about American culture in the 20th century as viewed through the lens of the BSA’s rise and fall in popularity. iii Table of Contents Author’s Preface ................................................................................................................pg.
