The Kekeenowin of the Wimachtendienk

The history of the Order of the Arrow (Wimachtendienk) has been written several times over the years, but never before through the eyes of the ceremonies and rituals that are so important. This book shares with the reader not only the history of this very special Boy Scout program, but also the complete texts of all known ceremonies used from 1915 through 1948. Some incredible, never before seen, ceremonial scripts are presented with full background and proof of their veracity. The book is filled with pictures and stories that date back to the earliest years on Treasure Island and in the Philadelphia area, which was the birth place of the Order of the Arrow in 1915. This book is a must for any youth or adult who has ever been a ceremonialist in the Order of the Arrow! ABOUT THE AUTHOR -- In 1951 Terry Grove, at the age of nine, joined Cub Scouting and earned the Arrow of Light.

As an adult he has been accorded the God and Service award, District Award of Merit, and the Silver Beaver.
