Quality Lodge
Migisi Opawgan Lodge was recognized as one of the twenty most spirited Lodges attending NOAC 2004. Lodges who competed had to complete nine different requirements during NOAC. The requirements were designed to measure how involved the Lodge was at NOAC. The toughest requirements were number 1, which required us to have at least 1.5% plus 10 members of our lodge in attendance and number 8, which measured how many members of our contingent earned the individual participation award.
Migisi Opawgan receives a National Service Grant. After raising matching funds, they are able to purchase new docks for both our Council camps. Members of the lodge also help with the construction and installation of the new docks.
