Are you passionate about your experience at an Order of the Arrow High Adventure (OAHA) program? Do you want to inspire others to embark on life-changing adventures? The OA High Adventure (OAHA) Ambassador Program provides you with an opportunity to share your story and encourage fellow Arrowmen to explore these unique Scouting experiences.
What Is the OAHA Ambassador Program?
The OAHA Ambassador Program is designed for Arrowmen who have attended an OAHA trek and want to help others discover the incredible opportunities these programs provide. By sharing your experiences, presenting at events, and connecting with Arrowmen, you can inspire others to join and make an impact on their Scouting journey. As a reward for your efforts, you can earn the exclusive OAHA Ambassador patch—a symbol of your dedication to promoting high adventure in the OA.
Why Join the Program?
Being an OAHA Ambassador is more than a way to earn a patch. It’s an opportunity to:
- Inspire Others: Share the unique memories, lessons, and moments from your OAHA trek with Arrowmen who may not yet realize the transformative experiences awaiting them.
- Support Scouting Adventures: Highlight the impact of OAHA programs and the importance of service in shaping the future of Scouting.
- Develop Leadership Skills: By presenting at events and engaging with others, you’ll hone communication and leadership abilities that will benefit you in and out of Scouting.
- Expand Your Network: Connect with like-minded Arrowmen, build lasting friendships, and strengthen your ties within the OA community.
