Candidates completing their Ordeal during Fall Reunion should purchase a candidate ticket before the event. The candidate ticket includes Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner on Saturday and access to the weekend’s activities. It also includes an event patch.
Season and Thunderbird Pass holders should reference their membership cards for an event password/discount code when registering.

Event Overview
Fall Reunion is Shawnee Lodge’s largest event each year. Candidates elected in the summertime join Arrowmen from across the 9 Chapters to serve in various projects at S bar F Scout Ranch in Knob Lick, MO.
Outlined in the event map are locations for each Chapter for the weekend. Attendees provide their own tenting arrangements and may purchase meal options with their ticket. Also located in the Chapter’s area is the Chapter Headquarters, where attendees can ask questions and meet for various activities.
On Friday night the Lodge hosts its yearly Officer elections where current youth Arrowmen (under 21) can vote on the leadership team for the upcoming year.

Welcome to the next evolution of Check-In at Shawnee Lodge Events!
Continuing at Fall Reunion, members will use their membership cards to check into events. Each card has a barcode which will be scanned upon entry to camp. Event staff will be giving out wristbands and patches at check-in locations.
Vehicles entering camp will be directed down the main road, toward the camporee field, then divided into four check-in lanes. Staff will be stationed at each lane ready to check members in. Each member in a vehicle should have their membership card ready to hand to staff for scanning. Ordeal members, candidates, and those who did not bring their card will be searched through our database by their last name.
Vehicles towing a trailer will be directed through the trailer bypass. Like the other stations, a staff member will check-in each member in the vehicle.
Anyone who did not pre-register for the event or is having issues checking in will be directed to park at Wenzel Lodge and proceed to the help desk.
