OAC song (to the tune of Willy Wonka song):

OAC, OAC, walk the land and swim the sea
OAC, OAC, come along and sing with me
we'll climb the mountain, reach the peak,
and build a fire there
we'll sing and dance and cheer like mad
to keep the passion burning
keep on burning
burning burning burning!

OAC, OAC, we're one big family
OAC, OAC, we're the best you've ever seen
the kayakers, the rockclimbers, the basha builders, and the great champions
Long Live OAC!!!
