Other adults, please note, we need help with other positions also. We are feeling the loss of Mr. Shields and are realizing just how much he did for our crew. If you are willing to help, please contact Jerry Andrews, our committee chair, and tell him you want to meet the challenge!

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!!

Our Boy Scout youth conducted another successful barbeque!
Saturday, March 6, saw the Tella Qualla Boundary OA Chapter / Venture Crew 9236 4th Annual BBQ fundraiser blessed with blue skies and warm temperatures. Many thanks to Isaac Goodspeed who headed up the effort. Our Scouts worked Friday evening cooking brunswick stew and smoking the tastiest pork BBQ around. This was followed by a night of making moccasins, working on regalia, creating leather chapter belts, doing beadwork, practicing on our drums, and playing video games. Saturday found everyone busy getting ready for the rush of customers we had throughout the day.

Pow Wow Registration Form Cost is $16. Only $11 if you served on Adventure Camp Staff last Oct. This will NOT be your normal Spring Pow Wow! The 2010 Lodge Pow Wow is coming up March 12-14 at Bert Adams. Michael Remer has been named Event Chairman for the Lodge, and TQB is the Event Committee! This means YOU have a commitment that weekend. Register for the event today. The deadline is fast approaching. Not only will you have a chance to show the Lodge what it means to be a functional Chapter, you'll experience a program like no other you've attended. Michael needs every able bodied Brother, youth and adult, ready to serve from Friday to Sunday. The work isn't hard, but we've got to have TQB represented at every event. From ceremonies to dancing at the Pow Wow, we'll be expected to direct the Lodge's efforts. Let Michael know how you'd like to help. Email him now.
The weekend will be packed with exciting events. Saturday morning will see classes from Introduction to Drumming, Introduction to Dancing, and How to Make Regalia, to Extended Elangomat Training, Meet the Lodge Chief for Q&A about the OA, and a class on Moccassin Making. If you're not asked to help in the morning, you've got a lot of great classes to choose from. (Adult Advisers, there will be classes for you as well this year. Mark your calendar and be there!)
Saturday afternoon will see the Tepee Village construction (TQB Brothers will supervise the Chapters), Drumming and dancing demonstrations, a time when everyone (this means you) will be able to dance in the Circle, and a time for Regalia evaluations for everyone who shows up. Our main event is modeled after a real Pow Wow. Bring your camp chair and be ready for a great time.
Saturday evening will include individual dancing and drumming instruction with people who have successfully competed.
Additionally, if you are an Ordeal member with at least 10 months since your ordeal (last year's WSR and BASR Ordeal or earlier), plan to join in the Brotherhood Trail Saturday afternoon at 12:30. You'll be finished in time for the Pow Wow. Your Brotherhood Ceremony will be held after dinner Saturday. Be sure to register for the trail as soon as you get to camp!
Sunday will see a Scout's Own service and our Service Project for BASR. You'll be on your way home by lunch time Sunday.
Don't delay. Get your registration in today! Every Brother from TQB is expected to help out AND join in the fun.
