Welcome to the Scouting Memories Podcast! We'll be bringing you interesting and unique personal stories from past and current members of Scouting.

In this episode, we’re going to listen to an interview with John Brown at the 2018 National Order of the Arrow Conference. 

John was born in Chicago and joined Scouting in 1945. At this time, Scouting in many areas across the country was segregated, so John was part of Chicago’s Douglas Division. John earned the Eagle Scout Award in 1949, then became a member of Owasippe Lodge in 1950. Since then, John has received numerous awards at the local, regional, and national levels. He served as Scoutmaster of the OA Service Corps at National Scout Jamborees in 1973, 1981, and 1993.

This interview was conducted by Mitch Pierpont and Nicholas Crenshaw at the 2018 National Order of the Arrow Conference.

Welcome to the Scouting Memories Podcast! We'll be bringing you interesting and unique personal stories from past and current members of Scouting.

In this episode, we revisit a conversation with Albertus Hoogeveen at the 2018 National Order of the Arrow Conference. 

Albertus has been active in Scouting since the 1960s, when he became a troop committee member just so he could go on a trip to Edwards Air Force Base. It wasn’t long before he was elected to the Order of the Arrow, then a month after his Ordeal, he was asked to serve as Chapter Adviser. That simple beginning led him to 13 National Scout Jamborees, 9 World Scout Jamborees, and 22 National Order of the Arrow Conferences. He also became one of the earliest experts in Order of the Arrow patches, contributing to the legendary Arapaho II reference book on OA patches and insignia.

This interview was conducted by Nicholas Crenshaw.
