2009 Fall Ordeal

 

   2009 Immokalee Fall Ordeal was held at Camp Osborn the weekend of September 18 to 20, 2009. 

Including the 38 candidates about 99 people attended some or all of the event.

 

Immediately after the Brotherhood Ceremony at the OA Ceremony Ring, a major lightening and rain storm

forced the Ordeal Ceremony into the dining hall.
