Conclave is a section-wide event where we invite all our members to join us in training and fellowship. During our annual Conclave, we have training opportunities available covering a wide variety of interesting topics. We also have fun activities for all our members, no matter their activity level, to participate.
We are looking forward to having you join us at Camp Barstow in the spring!
This year’s theme, “Out of Many, One,” reminds us that just as the original thirteen colonies united to form one nation, our nine lodges come together as one section and one brotherhood. As we gather during the 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States, this theme carries an especially powerful message that honors both our country’s heritage and the unity that defines the Order of the Arrow. You’ll see it reflected throughout the weekend, from the opening show to the ceremonies and competitions that showcase the best of every lodge.
The Cornerstone Conclave program offers something for everyone, whether you’re a first-time attendee or a seasoned Arrowman. You’ll experience training sessions, Quest competitions, and ceremonial and administrative events that highlight the creativity and spirit of our lodges. Reimagined this year, the Conclave Expo will feature booths from each lodge and presentations from special guests. Saturday night’s show and cracker barrel will bring us all together once more in fellowship and brotherhood.
