The 1962 Area VI-E Conference was hosted by Aal-Pah-Tah 237. It was held at Camp Tanah-Keeta, now called Tanah Keeta Scout Reservation. The pocket patch is pictured here.

I find it interesting that the patch design features both “amber waves of grain” and “purple moutains majesty”. Neither of these are sights one would expect to find in south Florida! I wonder if the conclave theme was something akin to “America The Beautiful“.

As has been done for the previous three years, there was also a neckerchief produced for this event. The design of the neckerchief is similar to the pocket patch. The central part of the pocket patch design was rendered with fewer colors with the relevant text identifying this event placed around it.     A red, white and blue border was added to the neckerchief.

In 1962 the following eight lodges were now in this area:

  • Seminole 85
  • Echockotee 200
  • Aal-Pa-Tah 237
  • O-Shot-Caw 265
  • Tipisa 326
  • Timuquan 340
  • Chiriqui 391
  • Eckale Yakanen 552
