Scout Honor Societies

The Order of the Crimson Arrow - existed in the Buffalo Council at Scouthaven Scout Camp as early as 1923 and lasted until 1949 when the council merged with the Erie County Council. It did have an arrow shaped patch that was a red felt arrow sewed on to white felt and was worn above the pocket on the scout uniform. The arrow was rather large, measuring about 5-6 inches in length.
