• Brotherhood - in a day when there is too much hatred at home and abroad.
  • Cheerfulness - in a day when the pessimists have the floor.
  • Service - in a day when millions are interested only in getting or grasping rather than giving.

Lodge Rules Committee
Chilantakoba Lodge has recently been undergoing changes in its By-Laws in hopes of creating a more efficient Lodge Executive Committee in the years to come.  The LEC approved the changes on April 19 at their monthly meeting.  The new rules will have to be approved by the Lodge at the Spring Ordeal in order for them to take effect for next year.
2009 Conclave
On April 24, 2009, 48 members from Chilantakoba Lodge set out for the Southern Region 1A (SR1A) Conclave being held at the Warren A. Hood Scout Reservation.  Along with Chilantakoba, five other lodges gathered together for a weekend of dancing, drumming, ceremonies, competitions, and fun.
Chilantakoba Lodge competed in multiple events, and brought home many awards.  Four ceremony teams competed, two won first place in their respective ceremonies and another took second place.  The lodge’s drum team also won first place and was also chosen to be the host Pow-Wow drum for the dancing competitions, in which Chilantakoba took home 1st place in Old Style Dance and 3rd place in Grass Dance.  Chilantakoba also won first place for their Founder’s Festival booth, received the Man Miles Award, and was recognized as a National Quality Lodge for 2008.

“Two roads diverged in a wood, and I --
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.”
Take the road less traveled; the road to Servant Leadership.
