Strategic Plan:

Membership:

Strengthen the Lodge through membership retention, maintaining our current Brotherhood conversion rate and providing quality ceremonial experiences to Arrowmen. The Extended Elangomat Program and Indian Lore Activities shall be used to attract and retain members while also increasing attendance at Lodge events.

Communication:

Increase the overall involvement of Arrowmen, through the promotion of camping and the Order by emphasizing Troop/Team Representatives, improved multimedia communications, elevating involvement of the chapters, and organizing the Ordeal around the National blueprint.

Service / Development:

Develop Lodge service and encompass a higher emphasis on training, facility improvements, and a wider service presence in the community, Belk Scout Camp, and Mecklenburg Scout Reservation. Utilizing the Scout Reach Mentoring Program, the Lodge will assist troops as requested by the districts.

Camping Promotions:

Actively promote the year-round outdoor program to the traditional units of the council through the strengthened reinforcement of the Where to Go Camping Guide, web-based publications, direct unit contacts, and heightened leadership development of Scouts.
