Lifetime Members      In 1986 our lodge decided that there were a few individuals that continually went above and beyond the normal call of duty. These men always gave themselves in unselfish service and devotion to the lodge. The lodge decided to give back to them and make them honorary lifetime members. They were given a special flap outlined with gold foil and their dues were paid for life. In 1993 our lodge once again bestowed upon a few individuals this honor. Those individuals are as follows: *The practice of awarding 'Lifetime Memberships' is not approved by the National Order of the Arrow. Our lodge no longer gives this 'award' to its members. However, as a lodge we still want to recognize these persons for their outstanding leadership to Aracoma 481 over the past 50 years.
