Brothers,
 
It has been quite the ride! Thank you for the opportunity to serve you as your Chief for the past three years. These are years that I will always cherish and never forget. From the late nights at Conclave to the luxurious ones at the Marriot Solana in Dallas I would not have traded this experience for anything. You have all challenged me to develop into the man I am today and you have been there every step of the way. Thank you!
 

Ladies and Gentlemen, it is finally time for Conclave, 2010.  A lot of work has gone into preparing this weekend, and we know that it will pay off.  We look forward to seeing you tonight at Camp Squanto for our annual weekend of Brotherhood! 

Less than 2 weeks remain until the start of Conclave, 2010. 

Join us from June 11th to June 13th for another weekend of Brotherhood.  This year's Conclave theme is "Uncas Begins with U," and will be incorporated into the Training and Shows.  Also look forward to some surprises that have been worked into the Shows, Publications, and Activities. 

We look forward to seeing you at Camp Squanto in less than 2 weeks!

These past few months have been busy for the Section.  In December, our Chief Greg Burke went to the National Council of Chiefs in Texas.  There, he was appointed to help lead a National Committee in rewriting the LLD program.  Congratulations to Greg on his new position and responsibilities. 

Further, the Section has been busy planning Conclave 2010.  Once again, Conclave promises to be a great experience for all attendees.  If you are interested in attending, contact your Lodge for information about joining their contingent. 

Hello from Indiana!  It is the end of the second day of NOAC, and the Section is well represented here.  Five of the six Lodges brought contingents to this national event, as well as our famous spirit. 

For those present, it should be noted that the Section is going to be holding its traditional gathering soon.  Information about the time and location will be sent out to Lodge Chiefs or the designees as it becomes available. We look forward to seeing you at the gathering, and around at NOAC!

Conclave 2009 is upon us and the weekend looks to be perfect!  The Conclave Team has put together another phenomenal program for this year.  We look forward to seeing you at Treasure Valley Scout Reservation (394 Pleasantdale Road Rutland, MA 01543)!
