After two years of service as a Brotherhood member, and with the approval of the National Order of the Arrow Committee, a Scout or Scouter may be recognized with the Vigil Honor for outstanding service to Scouting, his lodge, and the community. This honor is bestowed by special selection and is limited to one person for every 50 members registered with the lodge each year.

The Vigil and Founder's Committees meet in the months after the Spring Ordeal, after the Vigil and Founder's nominations have been received.   They decide upon the most deserving arrowmen for the Vigil honor and the Founder's award.  The Award nominations are announced at the Annual Banquet.
