The Order of the Arrow serves as Scouting's National Honor Society. More than 176,000 members strong, the Order recognizes Scouts and Scouters who best exemplify the Scout Oath and Law in their daily lives. The OA can help strengthen troops by providing leadership training and opportunities for OA members and by assisting in summer camp promotion, camporees, Scout shows, and other activities.

The purpose of the Order of the Arrow is fourfold:

• To recognize those scout campers who best exemplify the Scout Oath and Scout Law in their daily lives.

• To develop and maintain camping traditions and spirit.

• To promote scout camping.

• To crystallize the Scout Habit of Helpfulness into a life purpose of leadership in cheerful service to others.
