The National Order of the Arrow Conference, or NOAC is a weeklong gathering of members of the Order of the Arrow, typically held every other year in early August on a college campus. In 2020, NOAC will be August 3-8, 2020, at Michigan State University. Over 8,000 Arrowmen from all 50 states attend NOAC, making it the second-largest event in Scouting. NOAC consists of both training and fellowship and is the pinnacle of events in the Order of the Arrow.

Participants will return home with:

• A deeper understanding of the Scout Oath, Scout Law, Order of the Arrow Obligation, and what it means to “live” these words in one’s daily life.

• A renewed spirit, pride, and enthusiasm for Scouting and the Order of the Arrow.

• Ideas their lodge can use to better serve Scouting at the unit, district and council levels.

• New programs, knowledge, and skills to improve lodge and chapter operations.

• Enhanced leadership skills and a better understanding of how to carry out the work of the lodge.

• The latest information on outdoor and high-adventure programming, including how to successfully promote Boy Scout camping.

• New friendships with fellow Arrowmen from throughout the nation.

• Memories to last a lifetime!
