Vigil Honor Members
The Vigil Honor is the highest level of recognition that a Lodge member can obtain. The Vigil Honor is reserved for those individuals who unselfishly serve others cheerfully in the spirit of brotherhood. The honor dates back to 1915 when E. Urner Goodman (the Order of the Arrow’s founder) became the first recipient of the Vigil Honor. The honor is bestowed annually to deserving members following a special “vigil” night and Vigil Honor Ceremony. Kawida Lodge’s first Vigil Honor recipients were recognized in 1956, and since that time, nearly 400 Kawida Lodge members have “kept the vigil.”
