2010 Colonial Virginia Council JSP's added

While reviewing the Jamboree shoulder patch listings for Colonial Virginia Council at kecoughtan.com last week I was startled to discover that I had never added pictures for the 2010 JSP set. The design was featured in this news blog way back in July of 2010 with artwork illustrating the 6 piece set.

So tonight I took time to scan each of the 5 JSP's as well as the pentagon-shaped center patch and added pictures to the Colonial Virginia Council JSP page. It really is a beautiful set, and I'm glad that I was able to order one while I was back on the Peninsula in 2010 for the Kecoughtan High School class reunion.

New Colonial Virginia Council pages


I've revised the shoulder patch pages for Colonial Virginia Council to include thumbnail pictures of each emblem and to split the Jamboree shoulder patches onto their own page separate from the CSPs and SAPs. JSP's aren't included in An Aid To Collecting Selected Council Shoulder Patches With Valuation Guide 2008 Edition by Austin, Ellis, & Jones, so it only made sense to give them a page of their own.

The new pages feature the ability to click on the thumbnail image to view a larger picture of the patch, and even allow you to zoom multiple images to compare them for differences. Eventually I plan to revise all of the patch pages to include thumbnail pictures to make patch identification and comparisons much easier. Let me know if you spot any typos or can contribute any additional information to make the data provided more complete!

Colonial Virginia Council 2005 Jamboree Shoulder Patches

Colonial Virginia Council has just issued a beautiful set of five distinctive shoulder patches for the 2005 National Scout Jamboree to be held July 25-August 3 in Caroline County, Virginia. The patches are themed with different watercraft, from a sailing clipper to an aircraft carrier to the famous Merrimac which battled with the Monitor off the coast where this council is located. Four of the patches are specific to the CVC troops destined for the Jamboree, while the fifth includes no troop number and reportedly is for Council members serving on the Jamboree staff.



Thanks to Larry Johnson for helping me add these patches to my collection and make pictures of them available on this web site!

Wahunsenakah 2005 Conclave, Jamboree flaps

Wahunsenakah Lodge 333 has issued two flaps this year, with identical design except for white lettering at the bottom center indicating either "Conclave 2005" or "National Jamboree 2005." The design features three predominantly orange flying ducks over blue water with a red sky and setting sun. A red "ghost" FDL is embroidered on the right side, and red lettering "333" with red arrow through the middle is centered above the white text in the lower middle. The flaps both have a white rolled edge.
