District Note: ORDEAL IS ON! (Thursday, September 4, 2008)

TO PIEDMONT DISTRICT SCOUTERS:

ORDEAL IS ON!

The Order of the Arrow Ordeal Weekend will go on this weekend as planned.  There was concern over the potential impact of Hurricane Hanna but forecasts have the storm on a more easterly track.  More information can be found at http://www.wahissa.org/ - click on Ordeal II. (an extract follows)

After studying the weather reports, the Lodge Key Three have concluded that Hurricane Hanna will not affect the Ordeal. Therefore, we will still be having the Second Ordeal this weekend. Please note that although winds should not be a problem, we will most likely have rain Friday to Saturday morning. An extra change a clothes is reccomended for all participants, and all clothing and other items that you do not wish to get wet should be sealed in Zip-lock baggies or similar products. We thank you for your patience as we work to ensure the safety of all participants. If you have any questions, please call Paul Isaacson, Lodge Chief, at 1-336-785-5432.

Dates: September 5-7

Registration is from 6:30 to 7:10 pm at Camp Raven Knob's Dining Hall. Please note that this is a change. Our apologies for any inconvenience.
On Sunday morning we ask all parents to pick up their scouts at the Dining Hall at 11:00 am.

Cost for candidates = $30.00. There will be a Lodge Trading Post, so please bring extra money.
Cost for members = $15.00 or free with the Pipe Pass.
