OA Vigil Elections
Annual Unit Elections
Why Hold a Unit Election?
Unit elections are such an important part of what makes the Order of the Arrow special. They’re a way for Scouts to recognize their peers who go above and beyond in living the Scout Oath and Law. Elections also help keep Scouts excited about Scouting by giving them something to aspire to and showing them how their efforts are valued.
These elections align perfectly with the Order of the Arrow's vision "to be why Scouts want to stay in Scouting." By recognizing outstanding Scouts and introducing them to the OA’s opportunities for service, leadership, and adventure, we help keep them engaged and motivated to stay active in their units—and in Scouting overall.
