Dear Arrowman,

It’s summer time; a time to relax and hang out with your friends. Many of you have made some of your closest friends through the Scouting program. This year, the Lodge has decided that we want to get to know you outside of your uniforms and work clothes. We want to see you relaxing and having fun away from camp and troop meetings. That’s why we will be hosting our 1st Lodge Family Fun Day where we encourage you to invite your family and friends to come out and have a good time! The details of the Family Fun Day are inside.

          At the Fun Day we will celebrate our Lodge’s success at Conclave. Our Lodge had 138 members at Conclave, bringing the official Conclave attendance to about 450 Arrowmen! We did a great job as the Service Lodge and we couldn’t have done it without you. Thanks for your help in making Conclave a success!

          Help us keep you informed of upcoming Lodge events and other pertinent information through our E-Group. Click on “E-Pelican” under “Publications” on our website (www.chilantakoba.com), type in your email address and click “Subscribe” to join the email group. It’s that easy!

I hope to see you and your family at the Family Fun Day on July 12!

Dwayne Fontenette
Lodge Chief
