Conclave 2012

Theme: Testing The Bow

Camp Yawgoog, RI - June 10-12, 2011

The annual Section NE-1B Conclave will be happening June 8-10, 2012, at Yawgoog Scout Reservation in Rockland, RI. The Conclave is a gathering of the 6 lodges of Section NE-1B for fun and fellowship.

At the Conclave, you'll find many different activities and events to keep you busy from the moment you arrive on Friday evening until you depart on Sunday morning. In the morning, you can take part in training opportunities in many different fields that can help your lodge.

In the afternoon, get ready for inter-lodge competitions ranging from ceremonies to volleyball. If you're feeling a little less competitive, you can always watch these competitions, check out the OA Museum, trade patches, and go to the waterfront. This is just a small sample of the many activities in which you can participate. No Arrowmen should be bored with so much going on at the conclave.

This year, Abnaki Lodge will be acting as the Service Lodge, and they intend to make this Conclave incredible. Keep checking www.ne1b.org for more information.

The cost per Arrowman for this year's Conclave is $35.
