National Order of the Arrow Conference (NOAC) 2027

The 2027 National Order of the Arrow Conference, (NOAC), will be held from July 26th - 31st at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. What is NOAC you say? NOAC is 6 days of classes, shows, competitions, exhibits, fellowship, patch trading, and overall fun! 

NOAC is comparable to the National Jamboree except that it is only for active OA members. It also includes meals and lodging in a dorm setting, so there's none of the campsite cooking or clean-up and sleeping in tents that we all love so much.   

We will leave from a central location (TBD) and travel as a contingent to University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign on TBD.

We will depart the conference on TBD and are scheduled to arrive home late in the afternoon TBD. The central departure and return locations will be announced later.

Participant Fees:

The cost to attend NOAC is $1310.00 per person. This fee includes five nights housing at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, five full days of program and training, 14 meals, program and support materials, registration materials, insurance, admission to the evening shows, NOAC contingent t-shirts, NOAC commemorative patches, and recognition items during the six-day conference.

The 2027 NOAC contingent size has been increased and will enable more members to attend. Our lodge will maintain a 3:1 Youth to Adult ratio. At this time, we have slots available for 28 youth and 6 adults.
