Tsisqan Lodge held a special Vigil induction event at Camp Baker on March 19-20th to complete the ceremony for the six Arrowmen who were selected in 2020 to receive the Vigil Honor. The lodge usually calls out and completes the ceremony for each year’s candidates at their spring induction event in June, however, the COVID-19 pandemic continued to prevent the lodge from holding a Vigil induction event.
Finally, on a Friday night over one year after their selection, the six candidates and their guides left the parking lot at Camp Baker. It was a long road, but the Tsisqan Lodge is excited to welcome their Vigil Honor class of 2020!
