HISTORY OF THE ORDER OF THE ARROW The Order of the Arrow was founded during the summer of 1915 at Treasure Island Scout Camp in Philadelphia council. Dr. E Urner Goodman was Camp Director and Carroll A. Edson his assistant. These two men, working with their staff, originated the ideas that became the basis of this nationwide camper’s society of the Boy Scouts of America. The directors of the camp found that it was desirable to have some definite form of recognition for those Scouts who best exemplified the spirit of the Scout Oath and Law in their daily lives. Since the valley of the Delaware Rive where the Scout Camp was located was full of Indian tradition, and since the site of the Camp was used in bygone days as a camping ground of the Lenni Lenape or Delaware tribes, it seemed only natural to base this honor camper society on the legend and traditions of these Indians.
