MADE IN AMERICA

Hosted by Three Rivers Area

At Camp Snyder – Come for Great Food, Fun, and Fellowship!

April 17-19, 2020

The theme for this fellowship is Made in America. Spring Fellowship is an opportunity for Arrowmen from throughout the Lodge to come together for a weekend of fun, outdoor activities, and service to our council. This year, the Three Rivers Area has come up with an exciting program for all Arrowmen which includes tomahawk throwing, rock climbing, new beading patterns, branding, field games, and new this year, silk screening. Please join us at Camp William B. Snyder April 17-19 for this great event! If you want to take advantage of the branding, the lodge will have the totem for branding anything leather (belts, wallets, rounders, etc.), baseball caps, or wooden blocks.

Please be reminded that the youth hold lodge level elections at Spring Fellowship. This is your opportunity to elect your lodge leadership team for the coming year and, if so desired, an opportunity to run for a leadership position.

Is your chapter ceremonies team ready to display their talents? Register to participate in the Brotherhood ceremony evaluations. The top-performing team will have the honor of conducting the Lodge Brotherhood ceremony Saturday evening.  Chapters interested in participating in the Brotherhood ceremony evaluation should contact Mr. Rob Little at westernshoreoa@yahoo.com.

Spring Fellowship will be held at Camp William B. Snyder and we will be camping, so bring your tent, sleeping bag, and other personal camping gear. Please eat your Friday dinner before you arrive, since we will have only a cracker barrel that evening.

Please note: If you are a Passport Holder, you must register for Fellowship.  There is a no-cost Passport Holder registrant type for you to select when registering.  We typically get between 50 and 75% of Passport Holders that attend Fellowship, so we need to know that you are coming to ensure we have sufficient food and other supplies.
