About Spring Camporee

Each April the Aquia District, National Capital Area Council, gathers its troops for a themed weekend of patrol competition. Patrols rotate through skills and adventure stations, and at the Saturday campfire newly elected Order of the Arrow candidates are called out in front of the district.

Patrol competition: navigation, first aid, pioneering and team challenges.
Order of the Arrow call out at the campfire.
Patrols plan their own menus and campsite.
