National Order of the Arrow Conference (NOAC) is Scouting America's premier gathering of Arrowmen. Every two years, thousands of youth and adult leaders come together to learn, lead, serve, and celebrate the traditions of the Order while building lifelong friendships and returning home inspired to strengthen their lodges.

The theme for this year's NOAC 2027 is "Our Time"

Throughout the week, participants explore a wide variety of activities designed to inspire personal growth and strengthen their ability to serve their lodges and communities. From leadership development and hands-on learning to outdoor adventure, service projects, arena shows, competitions, patch trading, and fellowship, every day offers new opportunities to connect with others and discover something new. *
