OA High Adventure for 2009

Brothers,

I'm pleased to announce that the 2009 OA High Adventure applications for OA Ocean Adventure, OA Trail Crew and OA Wilderness Voyage are now available on the OA High Adventure website. Be sure to sign up as soon as possible. The 2008 programs were sold out by January 1 of this year. So submit your applications today!

Since 2009 is a NOAC year, each program will be running a condensed schedule leading up to the Conference. Additionally, as we have done in the past few years priority for the OA Ocean Adventure program will be given to past participants of OA Trail Crew and OA Wilderness Voyage.

The fees for each program are as follows:

  • OA Trail Crew - $200
  • OA Ocean Adventure - $500
  • OA Wilderness Voyage - $150

These programs are for youth between the ages of 16 and 21. Each of the three program is an unique 2-week experience where Arrowmen combine the ideals of brotherhood, cheerfulness and service in the out of doors. During 1 of the 2 weeks, Arrowmen will provide meaningful service to each of the program's locales. Some will help build portage trails in the Boundary Waters, others will assist in keeping our oceans pristine while others will build lasting trails in the backcountry at Philmont. The other week will be the trip/experience of a lifetime through a self-designed trip!

Also, the OA High Adventure Promotions team is putting on a CONTEST for past participants of each program. Each month starting in September, we will be featuring a photos and quotes from past participants on the OA High Adventure website. There are prizes to be had so please check out the OA High Adventure web site for more information.

Please contact me off-list at DaveNguyen191-at-aol.com if you have any additional questions.

In the Spirit of Adventure,
Dave Nguyen
