The many elements of NOAC, both the traditional favorites and the new features, truly achieved new levels. The 85th anniversary of our Order could have no greater trib- ute than the thousands of great Membership Arrowmen like you who made NOAC special. After events, we proclaim, "What a success!" But NOAC was success- ful because of the tireless hours dedi- National Chief Carey Mignerey and National Vice Chief Jordan cated by the staff, the great university Hitchens preside over the opening show at the National Order of the Arrow Conference in Knoxville, Tennessee. facilities, and the foundation of tradi- tion that we are so lucky to possess. The conference also was a success because each of you gained irreplaceable memories--leadership Quality Lodges training, dance competitions, region gatherings, the theme show, patch trading, Very Important Arrowmen meals. NOAC was uniquely memorable to everyone. At the same time, we all shared the experience. As we heard in the opening show, "We come together to explore that which makes us unique and to reaffirm that which binds us together." For both of us, NOAC 2000 was unforgettable not only because of the opportunities that a confer- ence presents, but also for the time shared with old and new friends. We hope that the conference has been unforgettable for you, as well. Until we meet again, may we be "Bound in Brotherhood, Led by the Spirit."

  • 2018 Scouting's Impact on the Economic
    2018 BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA ANNUAL REPORT TO THE STATE Scouting’s Impact on the Economic Engine of North Carolina 2018 Annual Report to the State of North Carolina For more than 100 years, youth participating in the Boy Scouts of America have promised “to help other people at all times.” Another of the Scout Laws is to be thrifty, which teaches Scouts to ‘work to pay their way and to help others.’ These principles encourage each Scout to identify the needs of others and to address those needs through diligent work. Helping others through innovation is the basis of entrepreneurship. Scouting teaches self-discipline, leadership, teamwork, and resourcefulness. The Scout Oath and Law emphasize integrity. With this training in hand, many North Carolina Eagle Scouts start and lead companies, contributing their ingenuity to fill unmet needs and achieving economic success. Over 400 Eagle Scout entrepreneurs lead high- growth companies in North Carolina industries, including real estate, healthcare, and technology. These Eagle Scout entrepreneurs no doubt helped North Carolina become Forbes Magazine’s “#1 Best State for Business” in 2017, and a state whose 871,000 small businesses account for almost half of North Carolina’s employment and gross domestic product. By highlighting Eagle Scouts from across our state who have created dynamic and successful companies, the 2018 Report to the State recognizes entrepreneurial leadership as one of the many contributions of Scouting. As you read this report, collected and assembled by a committee of Eagle Scouts, whom I thank, you will be encouraged by these Scouts and their dedication to conscientiously fulfill their duty to serve others through business.
