One of the purposes of the Order of the Arrow is "to recognize those
campers - Scouts and Scouters - who best exemplify the Scout Oath and
Law in their daily lives and by such recognition cause other campers
to conduct themselves in such manner as to warrant recognition."
To that end, Blue Heron Lodge presents three major awards annually.
- The Founders' Award
is presented annually to up to two Arrowmen who demonstrate
exceptional service to the Order.
- The James E. West Award
is available to any person who donates $1000 to the Council
Endowment Fund. Blue Heron Lodge makes one such gift on
behalf of an Arrowman each year.
- The Vigil Honor
is presented each year to Arrowmen who go above and
beyond the call of duty in leadership roles and in
providing service to the Order and to Scouting.
