Q. Ray,
Is it possible to purchase a life membership in the Order of the Arrow?
Thanks,
George
A. George,
Thanks for your question. Unfortunately, the Order of the Arrow does not allow for life memberships. Membership in the Order of the Arrow is contingent on having a current BSA membership, which is only done one year at a time during the recharter process at the unit or district level. If your membership in the BSA were to expire, your OA membership would also expire.
