Amangamek-Wipit Lodge Spring Fellowship

‘May The Forest Be With You’

At Camp Snyder - Come for Great Food, Fun, and Fellowship! 

April 14-16, 2023

The theme for this Spring Fellowship is ‘May The Forest Be With You’. Spring Fellowship is an opportunity for Arrowmen from throughout the Lodge to come together for a weekend of fun, outdoor activities, and service to Camp Will B Snyder. This year, we have an exciting program for all Arrowmen which includes tomahawk throwing, archery, climbing wall, branding, and field games. If you want to take advantage of the branding, the lodge will have the totem for branding anything leather (belts, wallets, rounders, etc.), baseball caps, or wooden blocks. Please join us at Camp William B. Snyder April 14th-16th for this great event!

Please be reminded that the youth hold lodge level elections at Spring Fellowship. This is your opportunity to elect your lodge leadership team for the coming year and, if so desired, an opportunity to run for a leadership position.

Is your chapter ceremonies team ready to display their talents? Chapters interested in participating in the Brotherhood ceremony evaluation should contact the Spring Fellowship Committee at springfellowship@wipit470.org.

Spring Fellowship will be held at Camp William B. Snyder and we will be camping, so bring your tent, sleeping bag, and other personal camping gear. Please eat your Friday dinner before you arrive, since we will have only a cracker barrel that evening.

Please note: If you are a Passport Holder, you must register for Fellowship. There is a no-cost Passport Holder registrant type for you to select when registering. We typically get between 50 and 75% of Passport Holders that attend Fellowship, so we need to know that you are coming to ensure we have sufficient food and other supplies.
