1995 Section NE-3A & NE-3B Combined Conclave

I’m sure there have been times that Lodges officially or unofficially attended a conclave run by a section that they were not a member. Certainly many conclaves have guests or visitors from Lodges which are not part of their Section. This is the only example I am aware of where 2 Sections have combined and run a joint Conclave, certainly the only example in NYS.

After the realignment in 1994, Section NE-3A and NE-3B decided to hold a joint or combined conclave in 1995. Ty Ohni Lodge #95 was the host for this event which was held at their Camp Warren Cutler. The theme was “When Brothers Meet.”

As you might expect, there was more than the usual number of items issued for this event.

First a four inch pocket patch:

The sharper-eyed amongst you may have noticed that one of the lodges was misnumbered. Lodge 477 was shown as 447. The patch was not reordered, but a segment was created to correct the error on both this and the jacket patch.

and the misnumbered Jacket Patch

There was also a three inch pocket patch with a different design:

And a few other non standard items
There was a plastic ‘coin’ as well. This also showed Section NE-3C all they were not part of the conclave.

  1. The replacement numbers are probably the rarer beasts because many of us probably lost them since the event.
