E7 Section Inductions Experience
E7 Section Inductions Experience
On September 25–27, 2026, Itibapishe Iti Hollo Lodge welcomed 180 Arrowmen from 10 lodges to Camp John J. Barnhardt for the Section E7 Induction Experience. The weekend brought members together to experience the Order of the Arrow’s new induction process and prepare to bring it home to their lodges.
As Section E7’s Exemplar Lodge, Itibap had the opportunity to help introduce this new experience. Luminaries, ceremonialists, and logistics staff spent many hours preparing for the weekend. Their work helped make the experience meaningful for participants while giving members from across the section a chance to learn and serve together.
Hosting an event like this takes support from people throughout our lodge and section. Thank you to everyone who helped prepare camp, served on staff, supported the program, or participated in the experience. We are especially grateful to those who gave their time in the weeks leading up to the event.
We were proud to welcome Section E7 to Camp Barnhardt and look forward to building on what we learned as we prepare for our first Lodge Induction Experience on April 2–4, 2027.
