Lodge 104: 2009 Events Patches
Posted in 
Occoneechee 104 eX2009-2?
Some OA lodges like to have all their events patches to follow a similar design scheme or theme for a year. That may be either a “program year” or calendar year. In an effort to facilitate this some lodges will produce all the patches for the year at once and then issue them later throughout the year as the events occur. Occoneechee lodge has decided to do that this year. Thanks to Greg Grimes for sending me the images of these upcoming pieces.
Each of the four patches is rendered in shades of a single color. The colors are the same that were used on the four “Charley Sullivan flaps” (S70?-S73?) issued last year. They are embroidered on felt.
The lodge had a minor difficulty in getting these approved by the BSA patch design folks. All four patches are shaped like a fleur d’lis (fdl). Yet, the BSA objected to the design as it did not have an fdl on it. So the lodge had to add an fdl into the design.
I am having difficulty deciding how to describe the colors on these patches. I have been told there is no white used on these, that the writing is in a pale shade of each patch’s principal color. The listing data for these issues, as they are issued, are as follows.
