Tipisa 326 Recent Chapter Issues
Posted in 
As the followers of Florida OA items can attest (see here, here, and here), the chapters of Tipisa Lodge 326 are prolific in production of items for their members. The patch traders within the lodge have established an informal network to keep the collectors of such items up-to-date with the latest items, which benefits the chapters with additional sales. As a result, many of the items created do not become contrived rarities, and newer collectors can obtain and trade with little difficulty.
First off is the 2009 Service Day patch from Micconope Chapter. The “30″ on the helmet also represents the 30th anniversary of the chapter.
Astatula Chapter hosted their district’s Call-Out weekend, which had two patches for the event (attendee, and staff).

Takachsin Chapter also hosted their district’s 2009 Camporee, and also created two emblems (attendee, with regular RED threads; staff, with RED mylar).

Wewahitchka Chapter has two patches issued in late 2009, with a Seminole design; 150 made, and another 50 made with GMY threads, as a service patch.
Estiotee Chapter has made three more for the end of 2009, none of which have the chapter name, and all contain a well-hidden reference to Tipisa. One small strip for “Ceremonies” (X-5), another strip for “Elangomat” (X-6). The third patch is also for Elangomats, and the 40th anniversary of the Elangomat program.

Lastly, a reorganization of the districts in Central Florida Council have led to the merger of three chapters. Wiquek Chapter is one of the three that will disappear; their demise is commemorated with their own “death patch” (R-1).

Hmmm, the Estiotee Chapter 40th anniversary Elangomat piece looks REAL similar to the Occoneechee 104 A.05
We’re flattered!
