Wahunsenakah issues 15th anniversary chenille

In recognition of their 15th anniversary, Wahunsenakah Lodge has issued an oval chenille emblem. This is only the second chenille in the Lodge's history; the first was an arrowhead shaped emblem saluting America's military branches issued in January of 2005.

The oval chenille was sold as a Lodge fundraiser and sold by preorder. A limited number may be available at the Lodge's Christmas Banquet on December 10. Funds from the sale of the patch will go to helping the Lodge support Bayport Scout Reservation.

Wahunsenakah 15th Anniversary flap

On January 1, 1996 Wahunsenakah Lodge 333 was formed from the merger of Kecoughtan Lodge 463 and Chanco Lodge 483. To celebrate the 15th anniversary of the formation of Wahunsenakah, the Lodge will issue a special commemorative flap patterned after its first flap that features a newly hatched baby duckling.

Orders for the patch were taken earlier this year and they will be available for pickup at the Lodge's Winter Banquet on December 10. A limited number may be for sale for those who did not preorder.

Thanks to George Homewood for the picture of the 15th Anniv. flap.

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.
