1955 Area 2-E Conclave

One of my acquisitions from the Central New York TOR last weekend was a neckerchief slide from the 1955 Area 2-E Conclave. The 1955 Conclave was hosted by Ganeodiyo Lodge #417 and held at their Camp Babcock Hovey.

1955 Area 2-E Neckerchief Slide

Mike Hulsizer says there were two varieties for the neckerchief slide. With and without camp fires alongside the tepee.    This is the no fire version which he believes may be the staff issue.

I need the other variety.

The OA Section List the following lodges were in Area 2-E at the time:

  • Ty-Ohni Lodge #95
  • Ganosote Lodge #159
  • Chautauqua Lodge #165
  • Tuscarora Lodge #284
  • Amo’chk Lodge #339
  • Tuighaunock Lodge #409
  • Wakanda Lodge #186 (to 2-H in 1956)
  • Ganeodiyo Lodge #417 (to 2-H in 1956)

“America faces a new culture war. This is not the culture war of the 1990s. It is not a fight over guns, gays or abortion. Those old battles have been eclipsed by a new struggle between two competing visions of the country’s future. In one, America will continue to be an exceptional nation organized around the principles of free enterprise–limited government, a reliance on entrepreneurship and rewards determined by market forces. In the other, America will move toward European-style statism grounded in expanding bureaucracies, a managed economy and large-scale income redistribution. These visions are not reconcilable. We must choose.” – Arthur C. Brooks, The Washington Post, May 23, 2010
