Spring Fellowship Photos Submission

Hello Brothers!

Firstly, I would like to thank you all so much for the incredible cheerful service that was put into Spring Fellowship! Everyone played a part in ensuring success whether you served as an Elangomat, worked on the campfire, or did one of the many other projects.

Seeing everyone have a blast while working together truly struck a chord with me and I hope it inspires everyone to keep up the great work.

For everyone who took pictures during the event, I have a challenge for all of you. The communications team is offering a competition for everyone who submits photos of the Spring Fellowship. Send some of your photos for the chance to win a prize!

To submit your pictures, you can either submit the pictures to the Mowogo Facebook page or message the Instagram page Mowogo243. Additionally, you can email them to these people:

Be sure to follow YPT if you are emailing pictures.

Thank you all so much! I look forward to seeing everyone's pictures!

Yours in Enthusiasm,

Spring Fellowship Check-in and Check-out Procedure

Hello Brothers,

Spring Fellowship is coming up and we are very excited for a weekend of fellowship and service.

 

Here is the Check-in procedure for arriving on Friday night between 6:30 p.m. and 9:00 p.m.

Members and Candidates will arrive in the parking lot and head to the Admin Building.

Please leave your gear outside while you go inside for check-in.

Everyone bring their Medical forms if needed inside to the check-in table so we can make sure everyone has registered, paid, and accounted for.

Everyone will receive a Patch Voucher that you will need to hold onto for the weekend. This is your way to receive your patch during checkout.

After turning in your paperwork:

Members will head back outside, and head to your chapter campsite.

Candidates will proceed to the medical officer with their Medical Forms, and then be assigned to a clan and receive an arm band.
We ask that candidates arrive as close to 6:30 as possible so that we can get them in their clans.

If you plan on becoming Brotherhood Members at Spring Fellowship, please be early as well since the Brotherhood hike will start at 8 p.m. from the dining hall porch.

For after 9:00 p.m. or Saturday arrivals Check-in will be available after breakfast on Saturday.

 

Check-out procedure

Everyone will have received a Patch Voucher when they check in and will need to turn it in on Sunday when they check out to receive their patch. Turning in the Patch Voucher is how we know that you have left the property.

From after Breakfast Sunday morning, someone will be available in the Admin Building, swapping Patch Vouchers for Patches, and checking people out. Once you have turned your ticket in and received your patch, you are free to go home.

If you must leave early, please check out with one of the Admin team or leave your Patch Voucher with your Chapter Adviser so that they may collect your Patch.

If anyone has any questions, feel free to reach out.

 

Yours in Service,

Spring Fellowship Ceremonialists Needed!

Good afternoon Arrowmen!

As of now, we are in dire need of additional ceremonialists.

We need two Allowat Sakima’s for Friday night’s Pre-Ordeal ceremonies, along with one for Saturday’s Ordeal, who can be the same as a Pre-O.

We also need backups for EVERY PRINCIPLE.

The more ceremonialists we have, the better experience we can offer our candidates and our brothers. However, if we do not have enough ceremonialists, we cannot hold a brotherhood ceremony, we hold it at an inopportune time, or ceremonies stretch out so long it negatively impacts the fellowship experience for the whole lodge. Every youth member, even those that went through their Ordeal at Fall Fellowship, are eligible to be a ceremonialist.

Please contact me ASAP at lodge.vcia@mowogo.org

Yours in Brotherhood,

Andrew Chalmers | Lodge Vice Chief of Indian Affairs
