The 2009 Lodge Winter Banquet was held January 10 at the VSC. 166 Lodge Brothers, family members and guests attended with TQB having 42 members present!

This was indeed TQB's night -
Colin P. received the Founder's Award
Mr. Shields received the Founder's Award
Andrew W. received the Key Three Youth Award
Mr. Guerin received the Key Three Adult Award
TQB was awarded 68 of the 77 Service Hawk Awards earned in the Lodge

TQB was overwhelmingly Chapter of the Year (Third time in last four years!)

The Founder's Award is the highest honor a Lodge can bestow upon a member and represents the total personal commitment to the Order of the Arrow, the Obligation of the Order and our principles of Brotherhood Cheerfulness and Service by the recipient. Congratulations to Colin P. and Mr. Shields - both of our Brothers are fully deserving of this esteemed honor.

The Key Three Award is decided upon by the Lodge Chief, Lodge Adviser and Lodge Staff Adviser and is presented in recognition of exceptional service to the Lodge and her members by the recipient. Andrew W. was singled out for his outstanding work on Summerfest 2009 and Mr. Guerin for the excellence he displayed as an Adviser for Adventure Camp 2009. The Key Three wished there could be two Youth Awards because they were greatly impressed by the work of Michael R. on Adventure Camp as well. Apparently the deciding factor was that Summerfest was a totally new event.

The fact remains that the Brothers of TQB get the job done and done correctly! What an honor it is to be associated with each of you outstanding Arrowmen. Thank you for a stellar year and a 2010 which will be even better!!

Call Out Ceremony

Posted on Nov 18 2009 - 12:46pm

Brothers,
Our sister Chapter Lockchau Talofau forwarded their call out ceremony to me and I offer it for your review and input. Check it out and let me know if you want to use it- we must do something to strengthen our call outs and this looked pretty good to me. You be the judge however, after all, you are the ones who must perform the ceremony.
