Section NE-3A 1974 Section Conclave
Brian Petrowski had asked me to send him scans of several section conclaves from the 1970’s that both of our lodges participated in. Since I had planned to eventually add scans of NYS Section Conclave issues to the blog; this was the perfect excuse to start.
Below you will find 2 issues from the NE-3A 1974 Section Conclave. The conclave was hosted by Half Moon Lodge #28 and held at Camp Trimount. The Pocket Patch is a solid, the Jacket Patch (after the jump) has a twill background.

I’ve always been intrigued by the mid-70s conclave issues from before sections started consistently including the region in their identifier. I guess if you were used to using number-letter, like 2D, you wanted to use 3A even though there was no 3B (so the section ended up being called NE-3).
Being originally from an old Area 3-A lodge, I’ve noticed both the NY State “3A Conclave” issues and the early (SE) “3A” issues (the first of which was hosted by my current lodge).
