Ronald Camacho - Chapter Chief
Kyle Wojtasz - Vice-Chief of Ceremony
Danny Ravize - Vice-Chief of Service
Moises Castillo - Vice-Chief of Communication

Attention Japeechen Chapter OA Members:
There was a resolution passed at the last chapter meeting (Sunday, March 30) to add Election of Chapter Officers to the agenda of the Chapter meeting scheduled the morning of Sunday, April 27 during the Fellowship Weekend.  If passed, the item will be added to the meeting agenda and then we will be voting that day for new Chapter Officers:  Chapter Chief, Vice-Chief of Ceremony, Vice-Chief of Service and Vice-Chief of Communication.  

Please read the attached letter from the Lodge Advisor, Mr. David Enos.  In it he suggests that you all reread the Purpose of the Order.

This is a wonderful weekend, and it has been on your OA calendar since last August.  Please make every effort to attend and spend time with your fellow youth and adult OA members.  Don't forget: you are a youth/voting member of the OA until the age of 21.  If you're over 21, your youth membership becomes an adult membership.  Both/Either of these are only true provided that you pay your annual OA dues and are registered in the BSA.
