Takhone Lodge is led by the Lodge Executive Committee (LEC), a governing body of youth arrowmen comprised of both elected and appointed positions. The LEC is responsible for all aspects of lodge operation. The Key 7 is the group of arrowmen who serve in elected office and is the steering committee for the lodge. The LEC carries out the business of the lodge by planning and coordinating fellowship and induction weekends, service projects, training sessions, and other events as appropriate. It consists of the elected youth officers, appointed youth committee chairman, and chapter representatives.

To become a part of the LEC and contribute to the lodge, consider joining one of our many committees!
