Arrow Ads
From The Scout History Wiki
Designed to promote event attendance and increase Brotherhood conversion, Coosa Shows created this set of short promotional video, which spoof the popular "Get a Mac" commercials on television. The commercials feature two actors, who introduce themselves by saying "Hi, I'm a Mac" and "Hi, I'm a PC", then engage in some dialog to show the differences between Apple Computers and PCs equipped with Microsoft Windows.
These videos, then, introduce an Ordeal Candidate, who becomes a new Ordeal member, to a wide range of people. They each encourage him to attend some Order of the Arrow functions and seal his membership in the Order.
The videos debuted at the 2007 SR-6S Conclave, hosted by Waguli Lodge at Camp Sidney Dew.
