Dear {{FullName}},
This message is a friendly reminder of your unit’s Order of the Arrow (OA) Election on {{ElectionDate}}. We’re excited to involve new members in our organization, so please read carefully to prepare for a successful election. We can’t wait to share the opportunities the OA creates for your eligible Scouts! They learn valuable leadership skills and are encouraged to serve and lead their unit.
To ensure a successful election, please announce the date in advance to your unit members so they will be sure to attend that evening. Remember, at least 50% of your unit’s active members must be present to conduct an election.
Before the election, please submit the eligible Scouts in your unit. Include their name, gender, date of birth, BSA ID number, address, phone number, parent email address, and if different their email address. For your convenience, an Excel template is attached to this email that can be filled out and emailed back to us or you can submit the information online:
