Colonial Virginia Council shoulder patches for 2010 National Jamboree

Colonial Virginia Council will be issuing a colorful 6-piece set of patches for the upcoming 2010 National Scout Jamboree scheduled for July 26 - August 4 at Fort AP Hill near Bowling Green, Virginia.

The set includes five different shoulder patches, including one for the Council and one for each troop attending the Jamboree from Colonial Virginia Council.

The shoulder patches represent Scouts from the following cities, with a themed design appropriate to each.

• Troop 1736 - Emporia, VA - Colonial Block House
• Troop 1737 - Yorktown, VA - Battle of Yorktown
• Troop 1741 - Williamsburg, VA - Powder Magazine
• Troop 1742 - Hampton, VA - Colonial Harbor

The five patches fit around a center pentagon-shaped patch that features a colonial drummer with an American flag background and the official BSA centennial logo.

Thanks to Larry Johnson for the picture of the 2010 Colonial Virginia Jamboree patches.

Wahunsenakah 2010 National Jamboree set

Wahunsenakah Lodge 333 has issued a two-piece set for the upcoming 2010 National Scout Jamboree to be held July 26 - August 4 at Fort AP Hill near Bowling Green, Virginia. The picture of the patch is above and is now also included on the Lodge 333 Emblems page, where you can view pictures of the flaps the Lodge issued for previous National Jamborees in 1997, 2001, and 2005.

Thanks to Larry Johnson for providing the image of this patch.

Colonial Virginia Council Eagle Class of 2009 patch

Colonial Virginia Council held their annual Eagle Scout Recognition Banquet on March 20, 2010 at the Omni Hotel in Newport News. The Banquet honored the Eagle Scout Class of 2009, and a unique patch in the shape of an eagle head was issued to commemorate the event. 

CVC Eagle Scout Banquet patches were issued in 2006, 2007, and 2008 and were shaped like a standard council shoulder patch (CSP). You can find them listed on the Colonial Virginia Council Shoulder Patches page.

Wahunsenakah 2010 Spring Service patch issued

Wahunsenakah Lodge 333 held their annual Spring Service weekend on May 14-16 at Bayport Scout Reservation, and issued the beautiful pocket patch pictured above. Like the 2010 Winter Service patch it features lettering that is ghosted into the design. In the upper left area of the patch "Wahunsenakah" and BSA 100th Anniversary" are embroidered into the background and "2010 Spring Service" is visible along the bottom edge.

Arrowmen attending the Spring Service weekend received a sharp greeting from Mother Nature as the roof of the Birdsong Center at Bayport Scout Reservation was struck by lightning Friday night, causing a fire. All of the Scouts were safe and the fire quickly put out by the Middlesex Volunteer Fire Department. According to an email from Dick Collins, Scout Executive, the damage was limited to the roof and sheetrock and repairs have already begun.

2010 SR-7A Conclave patch

The 2010 Section SR-7A conclave was hosted by Tutelo Lodge 161 at Camp Powhatan on April 23-25. The pocket patch issued for the conclave features a complex design of an Indian standing in front of a fire with a lodge in the background, and woods, mountains, and a sunset all reflected in a lake. Ghosted into the design are the numbers of the lodges that comprise Section SR-7A. At the bottom of the patch the theme of the Conclave From the fire's heart is embroidered, along with a fleur d'lis. Surrounding the design are OA sash designs.

Above is a picture of the pocket patch with annotations indicating the position of the various ghosted lodge numbers. I've added the patch to the Section SR7/7A Emblems page, but still need pictures of other emblems that were issued at the conclave, including neckerchief, jacket patch, hatpin, Vigil rededication token, etc.
