High Adventure Programs of The Order of The Arrow - Trail Crew

Trail Crew

The first program that the Order of the Arrow established is the Trail Crew trek at Philmont Scout Ranch in New Mexico. The program, started in 1995, is held in multiple sessions every summer. Each session is a fourteen-day program for Order of the Arrow members aged 16 to 21 that gives participants an opportunity to work on various conservation projects around the ranch. Participants build trail for seven days and then go on a seven-day trek throughout Philmont. Many Order of the Arrow lodges and sections offer scholarships to Order of the Arrow members.
