Haddock: Friend, Brother, Leader During lunch Brad noticed Dr. Goodman giving him his undivided attention, making him feel as if he were the most important person in the world. The second occurred during the 60th Anniversary Celebration at Treasure Island Scout Camp. Arriving late, Brad and National Vice Chief Eddie Stumler stood in the back of the audience behind two young Arrowmen during the opening flag ceremony. Unnoticed by the two, Brad and Eddie overheard their conversation. They wanted to meet and talk with the national officers, but they remained unsure how to introduce themselves. As the two turned around following the ceremony, they recognized the national officers and became tongue-tied. Brad and Eddie quickly introduced themselves and engaged the two young Arrowmen in conversation. Brad realized that as a leader, people should not have to come to you; you should go to them, be approachable, and make them feel comfortable. These unique experiences would be ones that Brad would Dr. E. Urner Goodman with Bradley Haddock at the 1975 National OA Conference. never forget, and ones he would often refer By TIMOTHY C.

  • The History of Echockotee Lodge #200 Est
    WE ARE BROTHERS The History of Echockotee Lodge #200 Est. 1941 WWW 76th Anniversary Edition First a Spark, then a Flame As one of the four official experimental programs in the early years of the Boy Scouts of America, the Order of the Arrow’s growth was due to the word-of-mouth advertising between council executives, seeing its successes and bringing the Order into their own programs. This was at a time when each of the experimental programs were to grow at their own natural pace, and it was only through personal contact and observation could the Order grow. In February of 1937, in Columbia, South Carolina, a meeting of the executives of the old Region Six was held. These leaders, coming from North and South Carolina, Georgia, most of Florida, parts of Alabama, and the Panama Canal Zone, met with members of the National Program staff, including E. Urner Goodman, the founder of the Order of the Arrow. In his capacity of Director of Program, for the BSA, he was in a position to offer his expert advice on the Order and its potential in camp and council activities. In the ten years following that meeting, 34 of the 40 lodges in Region Six were chartered by the National office. Seeds planted in that meeting were tended by nearby executives familiar with the benefits brought by the Order, and from those leaders of nearby lodges came the establishment of other lodges; such was the case with the establishment of Echockotee Lodge 200. Since 1910, the Boy Scouts of America has maintained a high profile in the Jacksonville, Florida area.
