Brothers,

Ever since I took the Obligation for the first time, I have been in awe of the legacy of service left by the hundreds of thousands of Arrowmen who came before me. Their commitment to our core values for more than a century lays the cornerstone for everything we do in the present and future.

The Order of the Arrow History Timeline pays tribute to that commitment and serves as a reminder of our obligation to continue faithfully fulfilling our mission and purpose. From Goodman and Edson's time at Treasure Island to the first Order of the Arrow staff at a National Jamboree, generations of Arrowmen have taken it upon themselves to move our organization forward through unwavering servant leadership.

As their legacy falls to us, we each must decide the impact that we will leave. I encourage you to reflect on these stories and leave with a renewed sense of purpose to endeavor to be unselfish in service and devotion to the welfare of others.

Yours in Cheerful Service,
Zach Schonfeld
2020 National Chief
