OA Triple Crown Award
Order of the Arrow
High Adventure Triple
Crown Award
First given in 2005, this award is given to youth Arrowmen who have attended and completed Order of the Arrow High Adventure programs at all three of the national high adventure bases in the Boy Scouts of America. It is one of the national awards given by the Order of the Arrow to members while they are still youth. This award is not the official Triple Crown of High Adventure award that is awarded by Charles L. Sommers Alumni Association, Inc. (Northern Tier’s alumni association) in conjunction with the Boy Scouts of America. However, those who have completed Order of the Arrow High Adventure programs at all three National High Adventure Bases may qualify for the official Triple Crown of High Adventure award.

Famous quotes containing the words triple, crown and/or award:
“Their martyred blood and ashes sow
O’er all the Italian fields where still doth sway
The triple tyrant; that from these may grow
A hundredfold, who, having learnt thy way,
Early may fly the Babylonian woe.”
—John Milton (1608–1674)
“The crown of literature is poetry. It is its end and aim. It is the sublimest activity of the human mind. It is the achievement of beauty and delicacy. The writer of prose can only step aside when the poet passes.”
—W. Somerset Maugham (1874–1966)
“The award of a pure gold medal for poetry would flatter the recipient unduly: no poem ever attains such carat purity.”
—Robert Graves (1895–1985)
