OA Day at Disneyland


Order of the Arrow Day at Disneyland

On Monday, August 20, 1973 the Order of the Arrow (OA) hosted the first, and only, Order of the Arrow Day at Disneyland theme park in Anaheim, California. For most Arrowmen this was their first visit to one of the Magic Kingdoms. This event was held the day before the 1973 NOAC officially started.

The price was $5.50 per person, which included admission, 11 rides, and a meal. Most participants arrived early in the afternoon and stayed in the park until after the 9:30 PM renowned Main Street Electric Light Parade.

The only similar event in OA history was in 1933, when delegates to the Grand Lodge Meeting in Chicago went to the Chicago Century of Progress World’s Fair.
