We have two very big events coming up. First, our Lodge Leadership Development day starts at 8am on Saturday, January 24th at St. Mary's on Doucet Road in Lafayette. This year's LLD is going to be 100% youth led. Go to the website below to register and join us for a day of fellowship, fun, and to learn a little.

While you're there, sign up to attend the Annual Lodge Banquet. Join us for Fellowship at 5pm, and another wonderful meal starting at 6pm, brought to you by Mr. William Ritchey, along with our annual awards and presentations.

Finally, please remember to pay your 2026 lodge dues if you have not done so already. You can do all three on the same form.

That's all on January 24, 2026. The following weekend, January 30-February 1, 2026 we will host the Section Impact Summit at Mt. Bayou. Let's have a strong showing as arrowmen from across the state come to our house for a great weekend together. On top of a great time together, Brian and Jamie Thompson will be showing the section how to properly cook at camp. Gavin set a goal of 25 arrowmen attending, right now we only 3 youth signed up. Please register as soon as possible at the link below.

As an added incentive, any Atchafalaya Lodge arrowman who attends both SIS and Conclave this year will receive a limited edition 60th Anniversary Ghost Flap (while supplies last). This flap will not be for sale.
