Order of The Arrow History The Order was originally founded in the summer of 1915 on Treasure Island, in the Philadelphia Council. The order was founded by Dr. E. Urner Goodman and Carroll A. Edson both men were only 24 years old. While reading a book they found information on a society that had been started at a similar summer camp. This society had been established to put into effect the traditions and ideals of camping from year to year. Both men agreed with one another that they too would want to start a similar society at their camp. Because Treasure Island had orginally been used as a Native American hunting place it seemed only right base their society on the legends and traditions of those Native Americans who were called the Lenni Lenape, or Deleware Indians. |
