Lodge Leadership Retreat
Our new Chapter Chief, Michael Mynxx, and Mr. Johnson attended the Lodge Leadership Retreat at Camp Cherokee on Oct. 23rd. So now they are trained and Michael is gonna be a great chief.....and Mrs. Johnson made some really cool garlic bread.
Special Ordeal Ceremony for a Special Guy!
Okay, so Mr. Smyth had this little chain saw accident at his ordeal (for some reason, Camp Wisdom and the Smyth family just can't get it together...they have issues...). So, our wonderful ceremony guys made a special trip to his house and had a beautiful Ordeal Ceremony in his backyard....with the lake in the background.....it was awesome.
October Ordeal @ Camp Wisdom---Oct. 13-15
What a great weekend!!! Canupa had a great turnout both in the Bistro and on the work crews. We had new members take their ordeals. AND, most important, Mikanakawa was instrumental in getting things ready for the Centennial Camporee!!!

Fall Fellowship 2010!!! Fun! Fun! Fun!
Fall Fellowship was so much fun!! I know the guys had a blast, but since I was in the kitchen cooking the food with the rest of the Bistro staff, I didn't get out to see the fun. However, we did have fun with Easton. He really liked our food!!

May Ordeal
The May ordeal was great, many chapter members came to staff in the kitchen, ceremonies, and service corp. We gained several new ordeal members, and a couple of our dedicated ordeal members sealed thier brotherhood as well. Everyone had a great time and the many people that attended will have had a weekend to remember. The Arrow Bistro, once again, cooked some fabulous meals for the staff, and Judy Johnson created a simply delightful honey bun cake.
Yes, there is a recipe for that cake, check the last post!!!
Anyway, it was a great weekend all around thank you everyone who helped ordeal weekend.
